Use the four-way key of the controller to highlight

sensor will indicate the point of focus.
Without lifting your finger from the shutter-release button,
recompose the subject within the image area. Press the
shutter-release button all the way down to take the
picture.
The focus signal in the lower right corner of the LCD
