on the control button.

(Multi

AF)

Focuses on a subject in all ranges of the finder frame automatically.

When you press the shutter button halfway down in still image shooting mode,

a green frame is displayed around the area that is in focus.

When the Face Detection function is active, AF operates with priority on

faces.

(Center

AF)

Focuses on a subject in the center of the finder frame automatically. Using the

AF lock function together, you can compose the image the way you want.

(Flexible

Spot AF)

Allows you to move the AF range finder frame to the desired point on the LCD

screen and focus on an extremely small subject in a narrow area.

Notes

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.
