Using the Auto Focus Framing Marks
In Liveview, the framing marks indicate the area of your scene that the camera is focusing on. For the best possible pictures, the camera attempts to focus on foreground subjects, even if the subjects are not centered in the scene.
-
Press the OK button to turn on Liveview.
-
Press the Shutter button half-way and hold .
The framing marks are displayed. When they turn red, focus is accomplished.
While the Shutter Button is Pressed Half-way:
Center focus
Center wide focus
Side focus
Center and side focus
Left and right focus
-
Press the Shutter button the rest of the way down to take the picture.
-
If the camera is not focusing on the desired subject (or if the framing marks disappear), release your finger, recompose the scene, and repeat Steps 2 and 3.
NOTE: | Framing marks appear only when Liveview is on. Framing marks do not appear in Landscape mode. When you use the Focus Zone feature (Setting Focus Zone) and set Center Zone, the framing marks are fixed at Center wide. |
