FOCUS-LOCK SHOOTING

2. When the shutter release button is depressed halfway down, the green lamp lights up and the exposure and focus are temporarily locked. (Fig.

11-2)

3. While depressing the shutter release button halfway, re-aim the camera or recompose the picture, then release the shutter. (Fig. 11-3)

Note:

• You can cancel focus lock simply by lifting your finger from the shutter release button.
