Using the auto-focus framing marks (pictures)

When using the EVF/LCD screen as a viewfinder, framing marks indicate where the camera is focusing. For the best pictures, the camera attempts to focus on foreground subjects, even if the subjects are not centered in the scene.

  1. Press the Shutter button halfway. When the framing marks turn green, focus is accomplished.



  2. If the camera is not focusing on the desired subject (or if the framing marks disappear), release the Shutter button and recompose the scene.

  3. Press the Shutter button completely down to take the picture.

NOTE: Framing marks do not appear in Landscape, Night Landscape, Fireworks, or Video mode. When you use AF Zone () and set Center Zone, the framing marks are fixed at Center Wide.
