Focus Lock; Focus Range - Konica Minolta DiMAGE X50 Instruction Manual

FOCUS LOCK

The focus-lock function is used when you want to compose the image with the subject
off-center and outside the focus frame. Focus lock may also be used when a special
focusing situation prevents the camera from focusing on the subject. This function is
controlled with the shutter-release button.

FOCUS RANGE

The focus range is 10cm (4 in.) to infinity. Both the LCD monitor and viewfinder can be
used to frame the subject. However, because of parallax, only the monitor's live image
will be accurate with subjects closer than 1m (3ft.) at the zoom lens' wide-angle position
or 3m (10ft) at the telephoto position.

ECORDING BASIC OPERATION
Place the subject within the monitor focus frame or center
the subject in the viewfinder. Press and hold the shutter-
release button partway down to lock the focus.
The focus signal on the monitor and the
green viewfinder indicator lamp will
indicate if the focus is locked.
Without lifting your finger from the shutter-release button,
recompose the subject within the image area. Press the
shutter-release button all the way down to take the
picture.
