IF CORRECT FOCUS CANNOT BE
OBTAINED (FOCUS LOCK)
When the subject cannot be focused on, you can focus the camera on
another point at roughly the same distance (focus lock) and take the picture
as explained below.
1
Position the AF target mark on the
subject you want to focus on.
• When shooting a hard-to-focus subject or
a fast-moving subject, point the camera at
an object about the same distance away
as the subject.
2
Press the shutter button halfway
until the green lamp lights.
• When the focus and exposure are locked,
the green lamp lights steadily.
• When the green lamp blinks, the focus and exposure are not locked.
Release your finger from the shutter button, re-position your subject
and press the shutter button halfway again.
3
Keeping the shutter button
pressed halfway, recompose your
shot.
4
Press the shutter button fully.
ZOOMING IN ON A SUBJECT (OPTICAL
ZOOM)
Telephoto and wide-angle shooting are possible at 3x magnification (the
optical zoom limit, equivalent to 38 mm – 114 mm on a 35 mm camera). When
taking still pictures, you can increase zoom magnification to a maximum of
approximately 12x by combining the optical zoom with the digital zoom (with
record mode set to SQ1 or SQ2).
During movie recording, the digital zoom magnification is 3x.
Camera movement is likely to occur at higher magnifications. Stabilize the
camera with a tripod, etc. to avoid camera movement.
