MF ASSIST

If you tilt the joystick towards 3/4 when [MF ASSIST] is set to [MF1] or [MF2], MF assistance is activated and the screen is enlarged. This allows you to focus on the subject more easily.

Select [MF ASSIST] on the [SETUP] menu. (P22)

Press 3/4 to select [MF1] or [MF2] and then press [MENU/SET].

[MF1] The center of the screen is enlarged. You can adjust the focus while determining the composition of the whole of the screen.

You can also press the shutter button halfway to finish.
