Focus Point Selection
The D300S offers a choice of 51
focus points that together cover a
wide area of the frame. The focus
point can be selected manually,
allowing photographs to be
composed with the main subject
positioned almost anywhere in the
frame (single-point and dynamic-
area AF), or automatically (auto-area AF; note that manual focus
point detection is not available when auto-area AF is selected). To
select the focus point manually:
1
Rotate the focus selector
lock to
●.
This allows the multi selector to
be used to select the focus
point.
2
Select the focus point.
Use the multi selector to select
the focus point. The center
focus point can be selected by
pressing the center of the multi
selector.
The focus selector lock can be
rotated to the locked (L)
position following selection to
prevent the selected focus
point from changing when the multi selector is pressed.
