, using Focus Lock.
First, put the subject in the middle of the viewfinder. Then press the shutter button halfway to lock the focus on the subject. When you press this button, you will hear a click or see the focus indicator (usually a green dot) on the LCD screen light up.
When the finger remains in this position, press the shutter button halfway to lock the focus.
Hold down half the shutter and reposition the subject so that it is not in the middle of the LCD. Be careful when redrawing, neither you nor the subject will leave the original position. Finally, press the shutter button completely to take a picture. By locking the focus first, the subject can focus correctly even if it is not in the middle. Since you won't just shoot the image of the middle subject, please practice this technique, so that you can compose the composition at will and focus the subject correctly in the future.

The effect is that the whole photo looks a little dark. On the contrary, if the focus is locked on a very dark object, the camera will overexpose the whole photo, which will make the photo look slightly brighter.
