If the subject is out of focus
When shooting with the subject at the edge of the frame (or the screen), or when using [Center AF], the
camera may not focus on a subject at the edge of the frame. In a case like this, do as follows.
1
Recompose the shot so that the subject is centered in the AF range finder, and press the shutter
button halfway down to focus on the subject (AF lock).
As long as you do not press the shutter button fully down, you can retry the procedure as many
times as you want.
2
When the AE/AF lock indicator stops flashing and remains on, return to the fully composed shot,
and press the shutter button fully down.
Selects the metering mode that sets which part of the subject to measure to determine the
exposure.
