Option Description
AF-S [Single AF]
Use with stationary subjects. Focus locks while
the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.
The shutter cannot be released unless the
camera is in focus.
•
At default settings, the shutter can be
released only when the camera is in focus
(focus priority).
AF-C
[Continuous
AF]
Use for shots of athletes and other moving
subjects. If the subject moves while the shutter-
release button is pressed halfway, the camera
will engage predictive focus tracking to predict
final distance to subject and adjust focus as
necessary.
•
Focus does not lock when the in-focus
indicator (
I
) is displayed; instead, the camera
adjusts focus continuously until the shutter is
released.
•
At default settings, the shutter can be
released whether or not subject is in focus
(release priority).
