Snapshot Tutorial
• An Auto Macro feature detects how far the subject is from the lens and
automatically selects either Macro Focus or Auto Focus accordingly.
• Use of the flash together with Macro Focus can cause the light of the flash to
become blocked, which may result in unwanted lens shadows in your image.
• Whenever you perform an optical zoom operation while shooting with Auto Focus,
Macro Focus, or Manual Focus, a value will appear on the monitor screen to tell
you the focus range, as shown below. Note that the focus range is displayed
including the Auto Macro range only when shooting with Auto Focus.
Example: oo
* cm - 9
* oo is the actual focusing range value.
• The operations assigned to the [4] and [6] keys with the “L/R Key” setting (page
107) are disabled while Manual Focus is selected as the focus mode.
Using Focus Lock
“Focus lock” is a technique you can use when you want to
compose an image in which the subject you want to focus
on is not within the focus frame in the center of the
screen.
• To use focus lock, select “U Spot” or “O Tracking” for
the Auto Focus area (page 111).
1. Align the monitor screen’s focus frame with
the subject you want to focus on and then half-
press the shutter button.
2. Keeping the shutter button half-pressed
(which maintains the focus setting), move the
camera to compose the image.
• When “O Tracking” is selected as the Auto Focus
area, the focus frame will move automatically and
follow the subject.
3. When you are ready to shoot the image, press the shutter button the
rest of the way down.
• Focus lock also locks exposure (AE).
