Using the shooting functions
z Shooting techniques
When the subject is outside the AF area (Focus-lock)
If the subject is off-center and outside the AF area, the
background within the AF area will be in focus and the
subject will be out of focus. To prevent this, lock the focus
by following the steps below.
1 Place the subject within the AF area and press the shutter button halfway down.
2 Keep the shutter button halfway down, and put the subject back in the original position to re-
compose the shot.
3 Press the shutter button fully down to take the picture.
If anything but the subject is in the AF area
When (Wide) is selected (the default setting), an undesired subject that is located in another area
may be in focus. In such cases, pressing the center of the multi-selector focuses on the center area even if
(Spot) is not selected.
Press and hold the center of the multi-selector, then shoot the subject.
