When you have learned in the section Basic Operation how to take a picture
learn how to use this camera more effectively with the following techniques.
Shooting Images Using Focus Lock
Focus lock is a useful function when the subject you wish to bring into focus is not in
the center of the LCD monitor, or when you wish to compose a picture away from the
center. This function can also be used for subjects which are hard to bring into focus.
1
Align the focus frame with the subject you wish to
bring into focus, then press the shutter release button
halfway.
Focus has been achieved when you hear the beep and
the standby LED lights.
●
Focus and Exposure are locked (Focus Lock, AE
Lock).
2
Move the camera while the shutter release button is
half-pressed until you have the desired composition
then depress the shutter release button fully to take
the shot.
●
Focus Lock and AE Lock are released when you
remove your finger from the shutter button.
