Shooting with manual adjustment
•AF stands for Auto Focus.
• When you use Digital Zoom or AF illuminator, the AF range finder frame is disabled and appears in a
dotted line. In this case, the camera works to focus on the subjects at the center of the screen.
• You can change the focus method only when [Face Detection] is set to [Off].
• You can select only [Multi AF] or [Manual Focus] when shooting movies.
To set the Flexible Spot AF
1 Select the AF range finder frame indicator, then select (Flexible Spot AF).
The color of the AF range finder frame changes from white to yellow.
2 Move the AF range finder frame to the point you want to focus on with v/V/b/B on the control
button, then press z.
The AF range finder frame turns white from yellow.
To move the AF range finder frame again, press z again.
(Flexible Spot AF)
Focuses on an extremely small subject or a narrow area.
Flexible Spot AF lets you shoot in the desired image
composition.
• To set the Flexible Spot AF, see the following procedure.
• This is useful when you shoot using a tripod and the subject is
out of the center area.
• When shooting a moving subject, take care that the subject does
not deviate from the range finder frame.
(Semi Manual)
Automatically and quickly focuses on the area around the set
distance.
• Focuses on a subject in all ranges of the finder frame in semi
manual mode.
• This mode is useful when repeatedly shooting a subject at the
same distance.
• Use “Semi Manual” when it is difficult to get sharp focus with
automatic focusing, such as when shooting a subject through a
net or window.
9 (Manual Focus)
Focuses on the subject using a previously set distance to the
subject.
• To set distance, see page 47.
• When shooting a subject through a net or through window glass,
it is difficult to get the proper focus in auto focus mode. In these
cases, the manual focus mode is convenient.
