[FOCUSING] Selecting the focusing method
«Applicable modes: S / I / M»
You can select either of 2 automatic focusing modes: [WIDE AF] or [SPOT
AF].
[WIDE AF] : Because this mode uses a wide focusing frame, it is useful for
shots such as photos of 2 people standing side by side.
(Default)
[SPOT AF] : Use this mode to focus on a specific part of your subject. You
should also use this mode when you use focus lock to take
pictures.
* When the subject you want to focus on is not inside the focus frame, use focus lock to set the focus. (See
"
Focusing Off-Center (Focus Lock)" on p.66.)
