When using the
digital zoom or when
you take pictures in
dark places, the AF
area is displayed
on the center of the
screen with a size wider than usual.
When multiple AF areas (max. 5 areas)
light at the same time, the camera is
focusing on all the AF areas. The focus
position is not predetermined because
it is set to the position the camera
automatically determines at the time of
focusing. If you want to determine the
focus position to take pictures, switch the
AF mode to 1-area-focusing or 1-area-
focusing (high speed) mode.
In 5-area focusing mode, AF areas are
not displayed until the camera focused
on a subject.
AF mode is fi xed to 5-area focusing
mode in [SELF PORTRAIT] mode.
The AF mode cannot be set in
[FIREWORKS] mode.
QUICK AF
When quick AF is set to [ON] focusing
will be faster when the shutter button
is pressed as the camera automatically
adjusts the focus when there is not much
jittering.
Quick AF is fi xed to [ON] in Intelligent
mode [ ].
Quick AF cannot be set in the following
modes:
[NIGHT PORTRAIT], [NIGHT
SCENERY], [STARRY SKY] or
