You can reduce the AF frame size

•Press the n button, choose the 4 tab, then choose the [AF Frame Size] menu item and [Small] option.

•The setting is configured to [Normal] when the Digital Zoom (p. 58) or Digital Tele-converter (p. 59) is used.

If the camera cannot focus when you press the shutter button halfway, the AF frame will turn yellow and will appear.
