To focus with manual focus
1.
On the monitor screen, compose the image
so the subject you want to focus on is within
the yellow boundary.
2.
Touch “W”.
3.
Watching the image on the monitor screen,
touch “+” (closer) or “–” (further) to adjust
focus.
• At this time the image that is within the boundary
will enlarge and fill the monitor screen, which aids
in focusing. The camera will return to the screen
in step 1 if you do not perform any operation for
about three seconds.
NOTE
• An Auto Macro feature detects how far the subject is from the lens and
automatically selects either Macro Focus or Auto Focus accordingly.
• Auto Focus is the only focus mode available while face detection is enabled. To
select another focus mode, first turn off face detection (page 47).
• Use of the flash together with Macro Focus can cause the light of the flash to
become blocked, which may result in unwanted lens shadows in your image.
Using Focus Lock
“Focus lock” is a technique you can use when you want
to compose an image in which the subject you want to
focus on is not within the focus frame in the center of
the screen.
1.
Align the monitor screen’s focus frame with
the subject you want to focus on and then
half-press the shutter button.
2.
Keeping the shutter button half-pressed
(which maintains the focus setting), move
the camera to compose the image.
3.
When you are ready to shoot the image,
press the shutter button the rest of the way
down.
