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.
• To use focus lock, select “U Spot” for the Auto
Focus area (page 63).
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.
NOTE
• Focus lock also locks exposure (AE).
