Using the auto-focus framing marks (for pictures)

When using the LCD or EVF as a viewfinder, framing marks indicate the camera focus area. The camera attempts to focus on foreground subjects, even if the subjects are not centered in the scene.

Framing marks

1Press the Shutter button halfway.

When the framing marks turn green, focus is accomplished.

NOTE: If the camera is not focusing on the desired subject (or if the framing marks disappear), release the Shutter button and recompose the scene.

2Press the Shutter button completely down to take the picture.

NOTE: Framing marks do not appear in all modes. When you use Focus Zone and set Center Zone, the framing marks are fixed at Center Wide.
