Pre-AF
If On is selected when Multi AF or Spot AF is selected for
Focus (page 59), the camera will continue to focus even
when the shutter-release button is not pressed halfway
(the focus range, however, is narrower than for normal fo-
cus). This may decrease the time needed to focus when a
picture is taken, potentially improving shutter response.
Cautions
• Pre-AF is not available when MF, Snap, or ∞ is selected for Fo-
cus.
• Using pre-AF increases the drain on the battery.
Exposure Metering
Choose how the camera measures exposure.

Description
Description
Multi The camera meters exposure in 256 areas of the frame.
Center
The camera meters the entire frame but assigns the great-
est weight to the center. Use when the subject in the cen-
ter of the frame is brighter or darker than the background.
Spot
The camera meters only the subject in the center of the
frame, ensuring that it is correctly exposed even when it is
markedly brighter or darker than the background.
Settings of Center and Spot are
shown by an icon in the picture
display.
