Focusing an Off-Center Subject
To focus a subject not covered by the Area AF ellipse, follow the procedure
below. This technique is called focus lock.
•Focus lock works only in the One-Shot AF mode. (→p.35)
1Aim the focusing point on the
subject and press the shutter
button halfway to focus.
2Keep pressing the shutter button
halfway and recompose the
picture as desired.
3Take the picture.
Evaluative metering is recommended with the One-Shot AF mode which locks
the autoexposure setting when focus is achieved.
