When you are shooting movies (MPEG movie) and you choose Multipoint AF, the distance to the center of the screen is estimated as an average, so the AF works even with a certain amount of vibration. The Center AF automatically focuses only on the center of the image, so it is convenient when you want to focus only on what you aim at.

When you use Digital zoom or AF illuminator, priority AF movement is given to subjects in or near the center of the frame. In this case, the AF range finder is not displayed.
