A, B, C, D Modes (Setting the Exposure for Shooting) Images can be shot with greater control by setting the shutter speed or aperture value manually. Settings can also be adjusted to suit the shooting conditions and the type of shot you want to capture. • You can change how the camera selects the area of the frame to focus on by changing the AF area mode setting (A50). When Target finding AF (default setting) is used, the camera detects the main subject and focuses on it. If a human face is detected, the camera automatically sets focus priority on it. Rotate the command dial or multi selector to set the shutter speed and aperture value.
