When you use Multipoint AF, it calculates
the distance in three places, in the center of

the center, you can shoot with the auto focus
function without being dependent on the
composition of the image. It is useful when
it is difficult to focus on the subject because
it is not in the center of the frame.

Center AF
•
When you are shooting movies (MPEG
MOVIE) and you choose Multipoint AF, the
distance to the center of the screen is estimated
as an average, so the AF works even with a
certain amount of vibration. The Center AF
automatically focuses only on the center of the
image, so it is convenient when you want to
focus only on what you aim at.
•
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 AF
range finder isn’t displayed.
