Chapter 4: Setting according to shooting conditions Changing the focus range (AF MODE) Changing the focus range (AF MODE) If the subject is out of focus even when you shoot with the auto focus, you can narrow the autofocusing area only to the AF target mark. AUTO SPOT Even if the subject is out of the AF target mark (not in the center of the monitor), the camera will find the subject and focus on it. (Hold the shutter button half-pressed until the green indicator lights up, and the AF target mark moves to the subject to be focused.) The camera always focuses on the AF target mark. When it is difficult to focus on the subject with auto focus, use this mode to lock the focus. Tip "AF MODE" cannot be set in movie shooting mode. 1 Turn the mode dial to j, k, i, n, o, or l.
