Using Auto Focus

As its name suggests, Auto Focus focuses the image
automatically. The automatic focus operation starts when
you press the shutter button down half way. The following
is the Auto Focus range.
Range: Approximately 40cm to ∞ (1.3´ to ∞)

Press [ ] ( ) to cycle through the focus
mode settings until there is no focus mode
indicator on the display.

Compose the image so the main subject is
within the focus frame, and then press the
shutter button half way.

observing the focus frame and the green operation
lamp.

Press the shutter button the rest of the way to
record the image.
NOTE
• When proper focusing is not possible because the
subject is closer than the Auto Focus range, the
camera automatically switches to the Macro mode
range (page 71).
I Auto Pan Focus
When you press the shutter button all the way down in the
Auto Focus mode without pausing, the camera immediately
records the image using Pan Focus (page 72) without
waiting for Auto Focus to be performed. This helps to avoid
missing a special moment while you wait for the camera to
Auto Focus.
