a6: Number of Focus Points

Choose the focus points available for user selection.

• 1 55 points: Choose from the 55 points shown

at right. Use for precise framing.

• 2 15 points: Choose from the 15 points shown

at right. Use for quick focus-point selection.

a7: Store by Orientation

This option lets you concentrate on shooting without hav-

ing to worry about focus-point selection. Choose whether

the camera uses the same focus point and AF-area mode

in all orientations, or stores separate focus points and/or

AF-area modes for use in “wide” (landscape) orientation,

“tall” (portrait) orientation with the camera rotated 90°

clockwise, or “tall” orientation with the camera rotated

90° counterclockwise. The options are Focus point, Focus

point and AF-area mode, and Off.

Focus point: Rotating the camera restores the focus point

last selected in the chosen orientation. If you select Off

after choosing this option, the camera will select the cen-

ter focus point for all orientations.

Focus point and AF-area mode: Rotating the camera restores

the focus point and AF-area mode last selected in the

chosen orientation.
