Camera automatically selects focus area containing subject closest to cam-
era.  Selected focus area is displayed in red when shutter-release button is 
pressed halfway.  Choose this setting to minimize risk of pictures being out of 
focus when subject is moving erratically or in other situations in which there 
is little time to check focus.  Can be used with spot AF-area metering to me-
ter exposure only in active focus area (

 87).

Nine focus areas are shown in shooting display; press 
multi selector up, right, left, or down to select focus area 
containing subject.  Can be used instead of  focus lock 
(

centered in frame, or with spot AF-area metering (

 87) 

to meter exposure only in selected focus area.

Camera focuses on subject in center focus area.  No focus area indicators 
appear in shooting display.  Use focus lock (

  22) to focus on off-center 

subjects.  Pressing multi selector to right when Off is selected displays AF 
system sub-menu (

 101).

The focus options menu contains three options control-
ling focus settings.
