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.

• 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).

The Subject Is Too Close to the Camera

If the camera does not focus, try shooting with

p (macro close-up) (A59) in the focus mode, or

Close-up (

A37) scene mode.
