The Basics of Shooting and Playback Step 4 Focus and Shoot Focus and Exposure When the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the camera sets the focus and exposure (combination of shutter speed and aperture value). The focus and exposure remain locked while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. • When the digital zoom is in effect, the camera focuses on the subject at the center of the frame, and the focus area is not displayed. When the subject is in focus, the focus indicator lights in green. • The camera may not be able to focus on certain subjects. See "Autofocus" (A81) for more information. • In auto mode, the camera automatically selects the areas containing the subject closest to the camera out of 9 focus areas. When the subject is in focus, the focus areas that are in focus (up to 9 areas) light in green. 1/250 F5.6 Shutter Aperture speed value • When A, B, C, D or i mode is selected, the areas to be used for focusing can be set using AF area mode (A66) in the shooting menu. • The areas to be used for focusing in scene mode vary depending on the selected scene (A32).
