Setting the right focus
The camera automatically sets the focus and detects faces in all capturing modes.
It can also detect and track a moving object. A yellow frame indicates the face or
moving object that is in focus.
One way to change the focus area is to move your camera around with the camera
key half pressed. Once the focus is set, the circular frame turns blue. This
technique can be used, for example, to change the focus to a person who is at the
side of a group photo.
You can also tap the screen to focus on a specific area, or set a specific focus
distance. These options are only available for the main camera and depend on the
capturing mode selected.
Selecting a focus area
When using the main camera in Superior auto mode, you can touch the screen to
set the focus to a specific area. This feature is called Touch to adjust.
