(Continuous Servo AF with Release-Priority). Camera focuses automatically on

The shutter can only be released when in focus indicator • appears in the
viewfinder (Focus-Priority). Once focused on a subject, keeping the shutter
release button lightly pressed locks focus (Focus Lock, page 44). With a

subject as long as the shutter release button is kept lightly pressed (Focus
Tracking, page 88) and focus locks when the subject stops moving.

regardless of the focus status (Release-Priority). Focus is not locked when

subject until shutter release. With a moving subject, the camera
continuously focuses on a subject as long as the shutter release button is
kept lightly pressed (Focus Tracking, page 88).

area selected or Dynamic AF that also utilises the other four focus areas.
