Spot AF

The spot AF is used for selective focusing. Both focus and exposure are determined with the spot focus area. When auto reset (p. 55) is active, the spot AF area will reset to the wide focus frame when the camera is turned off. The spot focus area can be used with movie recording. When used with the digital zoom (p. 59), spot focus area is enlarged.
