Sony DSC-T11 Setting the distance to the subject, — Focus preset, Before operation

Shooting techniques

When shooting with the subject at the edge of the frame, or when using Center AF or Spot AF, the camera may focus on the center instead of on the subject at the edge of the frame. In a case like this, use AF lock to focus on the subject, and then recompose the picture and shoot (except in Continuous AF mode).

Compose the shot so that the subject is centered in the AF range finder, and press the shutter button halfway down.

When the AE/AF lock indicator stops flashing and remains on, return to the fully composed shot, and press the shutter button fully down.

•When you are using AF lock, you can capture an image with the correct focus even if the subject is at the edge of the frame.

•You can carry out the AF lock adjustment process before you press the shutter button fully down.

Setting the distance to the subject

Mode switch: /

When shooting an image using a previously set distance to the subject, or when shooting a subject through a net or through window glass, it is difficult to get the proper focus in auto focus mode. In these cases, use of the Focus preset is convenient.
