• AF stands for Auto Focus.
• Distance setting information in [Focus] is approximate. If you point the lens up or down, the error

increases.

• When you are shooting movies, [Multi AF] is recommended as the AF works even with a certain amount

of vibration.

• When you use Digital Zoom or AF Illuminator, priority AF movement is given to subjects in or near the

center of the frame. In this case, the

,

or

indicator flashes and the AF range finder frame is

not displayed.

• Some options are not available depending on the Scene mode (page 29).

Spot AF (Flexible Spot AF)
(

)

By moving the AF range finder frame to wherever you like on the
screen, you can focus on an extremely small subject or a narrow
area.

• To set the Flexible Spot AF, see page 36.
• This is useful when you shoot using a tripod and the subject is out of

the center area.

• When shooting a moving subject, take care to hold the camera

steady so that the subject does not deviate from the range finder
frame.

(unlimited distance)

Focuses on the subject using a previously set distance to the
subject. (Focus preset)

• When shooting a subject through a net or through window glass, it is

difficult to get the proper focus in auto focus mode. In these cases,
use of [Focus] is convenient.
