• When shooting with the focus lock or AF lock using the LCD
monitor, setting _
(AiAF) to [Off] in the _
(Rec.) menu
(p. 39) makes shooting easier since the camera focuses
using the center AF frame only.
The AF frame will not appear in _lm mode.
• The AF lock is convenient because you can let go of the
shutter button to compose the image. Moreover, the AF lock
is still effective after the picture is taken, allowing you to
capture a second image with the same focus.
