When the Subject is not
Centered on Your Com-
position (Focus Lock)
When the subject of your composition is not
centered, you can compose your picture after
setting the focus and then shoot. This
method is called "Focus-Lock."
Example: Taking a photograph of the castle
in the background with the camera focused
on a person in front.
1.
Turn the mode dial to

(Shoot-
ing Mode) or A/M (Aperture Pri-
ority/Manual Exposure Mode).
2.
Put the subject of your photo
right in the center of the LCD
Monitor or the Viewfinder and
press the shutter button half-
way.
The f-stop (aperture size) and shutter
speed are displayed in the bottom part of
the screen, and the camera focuses.
Once the shot is in focus, the exposure
and white balance are fixed and the
crosshair in the center of the LCD Moni-
tor turns green, as does the auto-focus
lamp in the lower left of the Viewfinder.
Check one of these to make sure the
subject is in focus.
3.
With the shutter half-pressed,
compose your shot.
4.
Gently press the shutter button
all the way.
• At macro shooting, the AF target shift func-
tion allows you to lock the focus without
moving the camera.
• This function is useful when a tripod is
used.
