Locking the focus and exposure
Strong light/dark contrast and the subject being outside the auto focus area may make it
difficult to achieve an appropriate exposure. Lock the focus or exposure and then take a
photo. Tap and hold the area to focus, the AF/AE frame will appear on the area and the focus
and exposure setting will be locked. The setting remains locked even after you take a photo.
This feature is only available in some shooting modes.
