This camera has autofocus and manual focus control. The focus mode is selected separately in the
Digital Subject Program, movie, and P, A, S, and M exposure-mode menus. When using Digital
Subject Programs, the focus mode is reset when the camera is turned off.
With the P, A, S, or M exposure modes or movie recording, the autofocus mode can be specified
between single-shot AF and continuous AF in section 2 of the menu (p. 44). Single-shot AF allows
the focus to be locked before recording the image, see the basic recording section. Continuous AF
continually focuses the camera. When capturing still images, the camera continues to focus when
the shutter-release button is held partway down. In movie recording, focus is locked when the shut-
ter-release button is partway down, but it is continually adjusted during recording.
Focus modes
When using the shutter-priority, aperture-priority, or
manual exposure modes (p. 36 - 38) 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 indicat-
ed in blue.
When focusing manually, a scale shows the approximate
subject distance. The scale changes depending on the
focusing range.
Use the up/down controller keys to focus; the monitor
image is automatically magnified by a maximum of 2.5X
depending on the digital zoom setting. The live image
returns to normal after two seconds, when zooming, or
when the shutter-release button is pressed partway down.
