Focus Mode
Choose a focus distance.
Auto—For general picture-taking.
Macro—For sharpness and detail in pictures at close range. 
Use available light instead of flash, if possible. The camera 
automatically sets the focus distance depending on the zoom 
position. 
Infinity—For distant subjects; auto-focus framing marks are 
unavailable.
Focus/Exposure Zone
Choose how the camera 
assesses the scene for 
exposure and focus.
Face Priority—If faces are detected, they receive 
focus/exposure priority. (If faces are not detected, the camera 
switches to Multi-Zone.)
Multi-Zone—Evaluates 5 zones to give an even picture 
focus. Ideal for general picture taking.
Center-Zone—Evaluates the small area centered in the lens. 
Ideal for focusing on a precise area.
AF Control (Still)
Choose an auto-focus setting.
Continuous AF—Because the camera is always focusing, 
there is no need to press the Shutter button halfway down to 
focus.
Single AF—Focuses when the Shutter button is pressed 
halfway down. (This setting uses less battery power.)
Sharpness
Control picture sharpness or 
softness.
