•• appears when the subject is in focus. The focus remains locked as long as the shutter release button is lightly pressed .

•Focus Lock cannot be used when the exposure mode is set to Sport Program .

•When you want to lock focus on a stationary subject that has been moving and tracked with Continuous Servo AF (changed to Single Servo AF from Continuous Servo AF), remove your finger from the shutter release button once and focus again .

2 Confirm focus indicator. then (while keeping shutter release button lightly pressed) recompose and shoot.

•After you have locked the focus, do not change the camera-to-subject distance. If you keep the shutter release button lightly pressed after releasing the shutter, the shutter can be released repeatedly with the same focusing .
