AF stands for Auto Focus.
Distance setting information in [Focus] is approximate. If you point the lens up or down, the error
increases.
When you are shooting movies, [Multi AF] is recommended as the AF works even with a certain amount
of vibration.
When you use Digital Zoom or AF Illuminator, priority AF movement is given to subjects in or near the
center of the frame. In this case the , or indicator flashes and the AF range finder frame is not
displayed.
Some options are not available depending on the Scene mode (page 36).
z If the subject is out of focus
When shooting with the subject at the edge of the frame (or the screen), or when using [Center AF] or [Spot
AF], the camera may not focus on a subject at the edge of the frame. In such cases, do as follows.
1 Recompose the shot so that the subject is centered in the AF range finder, and press PHOTO
halfway down to focus on the subject (AF lock).
As long as you do not press PHOTO fully down, you can retry the procedure as many times as
you want.
2 When the AE/AF lock indicator stops flashing and remains on, return to the fully composed shot,
and press PHOTO fully down.
