Manual Focus Check
In manual focus, if you press the FOCUS button, the display will be magnified about 8 times and you
can confirm the focus.
1. Set the Zoom/Focus switch to MF.
2. Press the FOCUS button to enlarge the image.
3. Confirm and adjust the focus.
4. Press the shutter button fully down to shoot the image.
The manual focus check will be released when the shutter is pressed halfway.
Notes
The shutter speed and exposure values cannot be changed when the manual focus check is
engaged. Just before shooting, the light is metered again and the exposure is set.
The image is displayed with the proper brightness regardless of the determined exposure. The
exposure compensation is not reflected in the displayed image, however, it is reflected in the
recorded image.
While the display is magnified, you can shoot photos if you press the shutter button, but the camera
will record the entire displayed image.
You cannot use the Face Detection and Smile Shutter functions.
