Changing the Focusing Mode (FOCUS: MULTI AF/SPOT AF) If you shoot the subject in the default focusing mode, the camera focuses automatically with Auto Focus (AF). The camera automatically measures the distances to a maximum of five AF areas from among 17 AF areas and focuses to the nearest AF area (MULTI AF). This prevents the center of the LCD monitor from becoming out of focus and enables you to shoot with a minimum number of out-of-focus pictures. You can also select one AF area at the center of the picture to allow the camera to focus on this area automatically (SPOT AF). Choose from the following five Focusing Modes.

Changing the Focusing Mode
(FOCUS: MULTI AF/SPOT AF)
If you shoot the subject in the default focusing mode, the camera

from becoming out of focus and enables you to shoot with a
minimum number of out-of-focus pictures.
You can also select one AF area at the center of the picture to allow
the camera to focus on this area automatically (SPOT AF).
