Shooting and playback basics

your shot.

TIPS

The frame in which you focus on a subject is different from the

frame in which you lock the exposure.

“AE Lock - Locking the exposure” (P.105)

Subjects that are difficult to focus on

Under certain types of conditions, the auto focus may not work properly. If this

happens, focus on an object with high contrast at the same distance as the

intended subject (focus lock), recompose your shot and then take the picture.

If the subject has no vertical lines, hold the camera vertically and focus the

camera using the focus lock function by pressing the shutter button halfway,

then return the camera to the horizontal position while keeping the button

pressed halfway and take the picture.

If the subject still cannot be focused on, use the manual focus. “Manual

focus” (P.100)
