Centre Point Focus

[Bob Eastwick]

I am trying to set my camera to "Centre Point Focus" but can't find it anywhere in the menu.

Can anyone please help....?

Many thanks.

Give us a clue.  What camera are you using?  Do you have a manual?  Have you read it?

[Bob Eastwick]

It's an A6000. I have looked in the manual but can't find anything.

On my camera -- which may be different than yours -- you can select the center spot (when using auto-focusing) for a particular picture -- or you can set it for all exposures by using the Recording Menu (screen #3).

In either case, you select SPOT or LOCAL.  With LOCAL, you have to choose the center spot.

Have you searched your Recording Menu?

Thanks. I don't think I have anything called a "Recording Menu" but I'll have another look at the manual.

Thanks for your help eveerone, but I've found it.

It's on the menu under "Focus Area".

You only need to set it through the MENU system, if that is what you want to use as a default setting.  If you want to use CENTER SPOT focusing just for a particular shot, you can quickly access it through the FUNCTION button on the back of the camera.  Again, details are in the manual.

Many thanks. All sorted now.
