Minolta DiMAGE S304 Instruction Manual page 49

Switching between the wide focus area and the spot focus areas is simple. Press and
hold the controller (1) until the wide-focus-area frame lines change to the spot-focus-
area display. Press and hold the controller again to return to the wide-focus-area frame
lines.
The focus area selection controls which spot focus area is active. This function can be
used for off-center subjects or to single out an individual subject from a group.
Once a spot focus area is selected, it will remain active even after the picture has been taken. Only
when one focus area is displayed, can the controller be used to zoom (p. 22) or adjust the exposure
(p. 52).
To select another focus area, press the center of the controller; all five areas should be displayed.
The controller can now be used to change the spot focus area. Focus area selection will remain in
effect when the LCD monitor is turned off.
Press and hold the controller to display the spot
focus areas; the active area is blue. Use the four-
way key of the controller (2) to highlight the desired
autofocus area.
Pressing the shutter-release button
partway down (3) or pressing the center of
the controller (4) will select the area; the
other four areas will disappear.
