Multipoint AF
When you use Multipoint AF, the camera
calculates the distance in three places to the
left and right and in the center of the image,
letting you shoot using the auto focus
function without worrying about the image
composition. This is useful when it is
difficult to focus on the subject because it is
not in the center of the frame.
The Multipoint AF is the factory setting.
