FLEX FOCUS POINT

The Flex Focus Point (FFP) is a powerful tool for off-center subjects. It can be moved to any point in the image area. The FFP cannot be used with the digital zoom or movie recording.

Press the central button of the controller and select the FFP mode using the control dial as described on page 46.

When the FFP mode is selected, a blue crosshair is displayed. Use the controllerís four-way keys to move the Flex Focus Point in the live image. Pressing the shift button while using the four-way key moves the point faster.

Pressing the central button of the controller while pressing the shift button returns the focus point to the center of the image area.

Press the central button of the controller to fix the position; the Flex Focus Point turns white.

Pressing the shutter-release button partway down also completes the operation; the FFP turns red briefly to confirm focus.

Press the center of the controller to move the Flex Focus Point to another location.
