High speed AF (H) mode
When you select 3-area-focusing (high
speed) or 1-area-focusing (high speed), the
auto focus is activated in high speed and
you can focus on the subject more quickly.
Pictures may become still in the condition
they were in before the subject was
focused when you press the shutter button.
However, it is not a malfunction. If you do
not want to make pictures still during the
auto focus, use the AF mode other than
3-area-focusing (high speed) mode and
1-area-focusing (high speed) mode.
•When using the digital zoom or whe n you
take pictures in dark places, the AF area
is displayed on the centre of the screen
with a size wider than usual.
•When multiple AF areas (max. 9 areas)
light at the same time, the camera is
focusing on all the AF areas.
The focus position is not predetermined
because it is set to the position that the
camera automatically determines at the
time of focusing. If you want to determine
the focus position to take pictures, switch
the AF mode to 1-area-focusing mode.
