Taking Pictures (B AUTO Mode)

Taking pictures with the focus

and exposure locked

In the above composition, the subjects are not in the AF
frame. Pressing the shutter button halfway at this point
will result in the subjects being out of focus.
AF/AE lock is useful:
Use AF/AE lock to guarantee best result when shooting a
subject that is not suited to autofocusing (➝p.35).
1Move the camera slightly so that one of the
subjects is in the AF frame.
2Press the shutter button down halfway to
focus on the subject.
