vapor, or similar lighting
- A cross (star) lter or other special lter is used

row of windows in a skyscraper)

The monitor may brighten or darken while the camera focuses.

A Focus position memory
To save the focus position even when the camera is turned o, set [Save
focus position] in the setup menu to [On]. However, some time may be
required until the camera can be used after turning it on (depending on
zoom operation and changes in temperature, the focus position after turning
on the camera may change from the position before the camera was turned
o).
AF-area mode
Choose how the camera selects the focus point for autofocus.
In modes other than [Auto-area AF], [Auto-area AF (people)], and
[Auto-area AF (animals)], the focus point can be positioned using
the multi selector (0106).
