Snapshot Tutorial
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 “
Û
Spot” for the Auto Focus
area (page 43).
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).
