• The following operations will return the AF
area to the previous one
– Setting the mode dial to auto mode
[ ].
– Turning the camera off.
• When using the digital zoom or when you
take pictures in dark places, the AF area
is displayed on the centre of the screen
with a size wider than usual.
• When multiple AF areas (max. 9 areas)
light at the same time, the camera is
focusing on all the AF areas.
The focus position is not predetermined
because it is set to the position that the
camera automatically determines at the
time of focusing. If you want to determine
the focus position to take pictures, switch
the AF mode to 1-area-focusing mode or
Spot-focusing mode.
