      You can select an AF point for focusing from among eleven AF points. In Basic Zone modes, the AF point will be selected automatically and you cannot select the AF point.

      1. Set the power swith to <ON>.

      2. Set the lens focus mode switch to <AF>.



      3. Turn the Mode Dial to a Creative Zone mode.



      4. Press the <> button.
      The selected AF point will be displayed in the viewfinder and on the LCD panel.
      • When all the AF points light up, automatic AF point selection will be set.



      5. Select an AF point.
      • Press <SET> to toggle between the center AF point and automatic selection.
      • Turn the <Main Dial> to select an AF point on the left or right or turn the <Quick Control Dial> to select an AF point above or below.
      • If all the AF points light up, automatic AF point selection will be set.


      NOTE
      • You can use <Multi-controller> to select an AF point.
      • If all the AF points light up, automatic AF point selection will be set.
      • Press <SET> to toggle between the center AF point and automatic selection.
