Konica Minolta DiMAGE F200 Digital Camera User Manual

When using the shutter-priority, aperture-priority, or
manual exposure modes (p. 58) with manual focus,
press the central button of the controller to switch
between using the up/down keys to focus or to adjust
the exposure. The active function is indicated in blue.
Use the up/down controller keys to focus. When focus-
ing, the monitor image is automatically magnified by a
maximum of 2.5X depending on the digital zoom setting;
the focusing scale shows approximate distance. The live
image returns to normal after two seconds, when zoom-
ing, or when the shutter-release button is pressed part-
way down.
Manual focus
The camera can be focused manually. When focusing, the monitor image is automatically magnified
so that image sharpness can be judged. Manual focus is disabled when the monitor is turned off.
Full-time AF
With full-time AF active, the autofocus systems continually focuses to keep the monitor image sharp.
This also reduces the autofocusing time when taking pictures. Full-time AF can be activated in the
custom 1 section of the multi-function recording mode menu (p. 56).
When the monitor is turned off or when the camera is set to manual focus, full-time AF is disabled.
Turning the full-time AF function off can help conserve battery power. Full-time AF is always used
with the macro subject program as well as the sports action subject program in the auto-recording
mode (p. 30).
