If Oﬀ (the default option) is selected, pressing the shutter-release button halfway does not lock exposure. If On is selected, exposure will lock when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.

20: Focus Area (All Modes)

At the default setting of No wrap, the focus-area display is bounded by the outer focus areas so that, for example, pressing the multi selector up when the focus area is selected has no eﬀect. Select Wrap to allow focus-area selection to “wrap around” from top to bottom, bottom to top, right to left, and left to right.
