What is focus lock?
i
When the shutter button is pressed
halfway, the camera focuses on the
subject, and as long as the shutter button
is kept pressed halfway, the focus is fixed
(locked) at the same distance. This is
called “focus lock”. After focusing on the
subject, you can then reorient the camera
while keeping the shutter button pressed
halfway to compose the picture you like.
What is the camera focusing on?
i
A target mark
&
on the monitor shows
the area the camera is focusing on.
i
The camera automatically determines the
correct focus by measuring from 9
different focus points within the shooting
area. If the target mark is at a position
that is different from the point you wish to
focus on, you can refocus, for example,
by changing the shooting angle.
iThe large target mark appears when
the camera focuses on a wide area in
the center of the screen.
About the focus indicator
i
A green focus indicator appears when
the subject is successfully focused, or a
red focus indicator when the camera was not able to focus the subject.
The shutter speed and aperture are displayed
i
When the camera focuses and the target mark appears, at the same time, the
shutter speed and aperture settings are also displayed. You can use them as a
reference when shooting.
If the motion alert icon appears...
iDuring still image shooting, if the shutter speed is slow and the possibility
that the image may be blurred due to camera shake becomes high, the
motion alert icon may appear on the monitor. In this case, use a tripod to
stabilize the camera when shooting, or set the flash operation mode to
automatic (page 43).
iWhen shooting with the scene function set to the fireworks ^ mode, the
motion alert icon always appears, but this is normal.
