MULTI-FUNCTION RECORDING
MULTI-FUNCTION RECORDING MODE ADVANCED OPERATION
Except for digital subject programs, the basic operation of the camera in multi-function recording mode is identical to the auto-recording mode. Thoroughly familiarize yourself with the previous section before moving on.
The multi-function recording mode allows greater control over image making. This recording mode gives more control over autofocus and composition. The menu controls are extensive allowing critical adjustments to image qualities such as sharpness, contrast, and color saturation. Unlike the auto- recording mode, all settings made in multi-function recording are not reset when the position of the mode dial is changed.
AUTOFOCUS AREAS AND CONTROL
In the multi-function recording mode, the controller selects the focus area used. The wide focus area and focus area selection allow flexibility in a variety of situations.
The wide focus area is an array of local focus areas that work together to control focus. This system is especially effective with moving subjects or quick shooting in fast-moving events. When the focus is locked, one of the AF sensors within the wide focus area will briefly indicate the point of focus.
