Yellow:
When the shutter button is pressed halfway, the frame turns green
when the camera is focused.

Displayed when more than one face is detected. Other faces that are the same distance
away as faces within the yellow AF areas are also focused.
•

• When [š] is selected and [Metering Mode] is set to multiple [ ], the camera will adjust the
