Focus Modes |
1)
Single Area AF: Focuses only on subjects in the selected
area. Selection can be made from any one of the eleven AF
spot sensors. 2) Dynamic Area AF: Focuses on subject in the
selected area, but follows the subject if it moves from its
original position, shifting instantly and automatically to
the focus area into which the subject has moved. 3)
Auto-area AF: measures all 11 focus areas, automatically
determines which of them are on the primary subject, and
activates only those areas. |

Focus Lock |
Focus can be locked by pressing shutter-release button
halfway (single-servo AF) or by pressing AE-L/AF-L button |

metering II (other CPU lenses); metering performed by

given to 6, 8, or 10mm dia. circle in center of frame. 3)
Spot: Meters 3.5mm dia. circle (about 2.5% of frame)
centered on active focus area (on center focus area when
non-CPU lens is used, or if Auto-area AF is selected) |
|
Exposure Metering
Range |
