Setting the AF frame (Set the AF frame to the center point only)

When [AF Frame] is set to [Center] or [FlexiZone], the camera fixes the focus on the subject captured by the center AF frame, so it is easier to focus on the subject you want to capture. This section explains the process of setting [AF Frame] to [Center] or [FlexiZone].
