To shoot with the touch function icons
You can also shoot by touching an icon on the screen instead of pressing the shutter button. Swipe the monitor left or
right to display the touch function icons, and then touch the (shutter) icon. You can view the captured image by
touching the (switch to playback screen) icon.
For details on how to display the touch function icons, see “Touch function icons.”
To select the focus mode yourself (focus mode/focus area)
Turning the focus mode dial, such as to select AF-S (Single-shot AF) for landscapes or still subjects and select AF-C
(Continuous AF) for moving subjects, makes it easier to focus on the desired subject. You can also specify the focus
position and range using [ Focus Area].
Shooting while focusing on human eyes
The [ Subject Recog in AF] function under [Subject Recognition] is enabled in the default settings, so you can use the
Eye AF function immediately.
To shoot images with the focus locked on the desired subject (Focus-lock)
When you focus on the subject, the focus is locked while the shutter button is pressed halfway down. Switch to the
desired composition and press the shutter button all the way down to take the picture.
You can lock the focus on non-moving subjects. Set the focus mode dial to AF-S (Single-shot AF).
Setting [ Focus Area] to [Center Fix] makes it easier to focus on subjects located in the center of the screen.
Hint
When the product cannot focus automatically, the focus indicator flashes and the beep does not sound. Either recompose the
shot or change the focus mode or focus area settings. In [Continuous AF] mode, (focus indicator) lights up and the beep
indicating that the focus has been achieved does not sound.
Note
An icon indicating that data is being written is displayed after shooting. Do not remove the memory card while the icon is
displayed. Doing so will prevent images from being recorded normally.
