POWER USER TIP: Pressing the OK button with any target
highlighted sends the target to the centre of the array. This applies in
single target and dynamic single target modes.
The behaviour of the input dial as far as the movement of the
target selection sequence is concerned can be adjusted between
LOOP and SPIRAL movements. In LOOP mode, the target
highlighter moves from side to side as you turn the dial and
movement from one level to the other must be accomplished by
pressing an UP/DOWN arrow pad key.
In SPIRAL mode the targets will move across the line from left
to right (or vice versa) and then activate all the targets before
spiralling down to the next row. After the targets in that row
have been activated, all targets will once again be highlighted
before the next row down is activated one area at a time. This
sequence will continue for as long as you continue to rotate the
input dial.
Target Selection – All targets mode
There is no selection of a specific target needed in this mode as
the camera will determine the most suitable target for you. To
this end, when working in S-AF mode, the selected target will be
illuminated in the viewfinder as focus is confirmed by the green
confirmation dot and/or the double beep.
When working in C-AF mode there is no visible confirmation in
the viewfinder of the actual target chosen by the processor.
To switch to the all target mode, press and hold the AF target
button while turning an input dial. The rear display screen of the
camera will show a representative graphic of the AF targets as
well as a logo on the left indicating which target mode has been
selected. The graphics represent, from the top: All target
mode, Single Target mode and Dynamic Single Target
mode. Select the all target mode (all the target areas will
