This camera has autofocus and manual focus control. The focus mode is selected
separately in the Digital Subject Program, movie, and P, A, S, and M exposure-mode
menus. When using Digital Subject Programs, the focus mode is reset when the camera
is turned off.
FOCUS MODES
When using the shutter-priority, aperture-priority,
or manual exposure modes (p. 36 - 38) with
manual focus, press the central button of the
controller to switch between using the up/down
keys to focus or to adjust the exposure. The active
function is indicated in blue.
When focusing manually, a scale shows the approximate
subject distance. The scale changes depending on the
focusing range.
Use the up/down controller keys to focus; the monitor image is
automatically magnified by a maximum of 2.5X depending on
the digital zoom setting. The live image returns to normal after
two seconds, when zooming, or when the shutter-release
button is pressed partway down.
With the P, A, S, or M exposure modes or movie recording, the
autofocus mode can be specified between single-shot AF and
continuous AF in section 2 of the menu (p. 44). Single-shot AF,
indicated by S on the monitor, allows the focus to be locked
before recording the image, see the basic recording section.
Continuous AF, indicated by C, continually focuses the
camera. When capturing still images, the camera continues to
focus when the shutter-release button is held partway down.
In movie recording, focus is locked when the shutter-release
button is partway down, but it is continually adjusted during
recording.
