Why Use Live View?
2. You can focus anywhere in the frame.
In live view, you can use the multi selector to
position the focus point anywhere in the frame,
regardless of the options selected for AF/MF and
autofocus.

tor’s angle of view greatly increases the range of locations on
which the camera can focus.
In autofocus mode, you can focus on the subject in the select-
ed focus point by pressing the shutter-release button halfway
or pressing the B button. In manual focus mode, focus can
be adjusted by rotating the lens focus ring.
