This camera uses autofocus to focus automatically when shooting. The focus area varies 
depending on the shooting mode. Here, we will explain how to use focus areas and focus 
lock.

In the following shooting modes, the camera uses face 
detection to automatically focus on people’s faces.

If the camera detects more than one face, a double border is 
displayed around the face that the camera focuses on, and 
single borders are displayed around the other faces.

1

If the camera detects both people and pets in the same shot, the camera can detect up to 12 
faces.

2

If the camera detects a person’s face and a pet’s face in the same shot, it focuses on the pet’s face.

• If no faces are detected when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the camera 

focuses on the subject in the center of the frame.

• You may hear the sound of the camera focusing.
