Notes on AF Area Mode
• When the digital zoom is in effect, the camera focuses on the subject at the center of the frame
regardless of the applied AF area mode option.
• In some rare cases of shooting subjects for which autofocus does not perform as expected (A33),
the subject may not be in focus.
• This feature may not be used in combination with certain features. See "Features That Cannot Be
Used Simultaneously" (A80) for more information.
Choose manually the focus position
from 99 areas in the screen. This
option is suited to situations in
which the intended subject is
relatively still and not positioned at
the center of the frame.
Rotate the multi selector or press
H, I, J or K to select one of 99
focus areas displayed on the
monitor's focus-area selection
screen, and shoot.
• To adjust the following settings, press the k button to
temporarily cancel focus area selection, and then adjust each
setting.

To return to the focus area selection screen, press the k
button again.

areas are available.
The camera focuses on the subject
at the center of the frame.
