Getting to know your camera better
There are several ways to focus, depending on the subject.
When the subject is not in the center of the frame
• Place the subject in the center of the frame, lock the focus on the subject, and then
recompose your picture.
• Set [AF MODE] to [iESP].

“AF MODE Changing the focusing area” (P. 23)
The subject is moving quickly
• Focus the camera on a point roughly the same distance away as the subject you want to
shoot and lock the focus (by pressing the shutter button halfway). Then recompose your
picture and press the shutter button completely as the subject enters the frame.
• Under certain types of conditions, it is difficult to focus using auto focus. The green lamp on
the monitor lights, allowing you to check if the focus is locked.
In these cases, focus (focus lock) on an object with high contrast at the same distance as
the intended subject, recompose your shot and then take the picture. If the subject has no
vertical lines, hold the camera vertically and focus the camera using the focus lock function
by pressing the shutter button halfway, and then return the camera to the horizontal position
while keeping the button pressed halfway and take the picture.
Be sure to hold the camera firmly with both hands and press the shutter button slowly so as to
avoid moving the camera. You can also reduce the blurring by pressing

before shooting
the picture.

Pictures are more likely to be blurry when:
• images are shot at a high-magnification zoom setting, i.e. using both optical zoom and digital
zoom functions,
• the object is dark and the shutter speed is slow, or
• scene modes where the flash is turned off and/or the shutter speed is slow.
