Set shooting mode

Set the AF-S shooting mode. Some cameras have a button used in conjunctio­n with a command dial; on others, you need to select it on-screen.

Pick the area mode

Set the Af-area mode to Single-point AF. Again, the method varies – some use the button/dial combinatio­n, while others use on-screen selection.

3 Select the AF point

You now need to half-press the shutter release button to ready the camera for shooting, and then press OK on the rear. This selects the central focus point.
