Finely focus on the subject by pressing the cursor button in reverse
Prefocus
This is a technique for focusing in advance on the point the pictures will be taken
when it is difficult to focus on the subject with Auto Focus due to its quick motion. (e.g.
[Panning] in Scene Mode)
This function is suitable when the distance between the camera and the subject is
certain.
One shot AF
You can focus on the subject with Auto Focus by pressing [FOCUS] button during
Manual Focus. This is convenient for prefocus.
