take the picture.
Once a focus area is selected, it will remain active even after
the picture has been taken. Only when a focus area has been
selected, can the controller be used to operate the zoom.
Press and hold the central button of the controller about one second to return to the
Area AF focus frames. To use another focus area, repeat the procedure.
