Using Focus Lock
“Focus lock” is a technique you can use when you want to compose an image in 
which the subject you want to focus on is not within the focus frame in the center of 
the screen.
• To use focus lock, select “U Spot” for the Auto Focus area (page 53).
1.
Align the monitor screen’s focus frame with 
the subject you want to focus on and then 
half-press the shutter button.
2.
Keeping the shutter button half-pressed 
(which maintains the focus setting), move 
the camera to compose the image.
3.
When you are ready to shoot the image, 
press the shutter button the rest of the way 
down.
NOTE
• Focus lock also locks exposure (AE).
