(K AEL/AFL)
MENU G J [K AEL/AFL]
Choose how the camera sets focus and exposure when the shutter button or AEL/
AFL button is pressed. The camera normally focuses and locks exposure when the
shutter button is pressed halfway, but this can be changed according to the subject or
shooting conditions.

AEL/AFL button (P. 202).

Half Way AF
Choose whether the camera focuses when the shutter is pressed halfway.
[Operative]: Pressing the shutter button halfway initiates autofocus
regardless of whether autofocus is currently assigned to the AEL/AFL
button. In [C-AF] mode, the last button pressed is used to maintain focus.
This option has no effect in [MF] or [FAF] mode.
[Inoperative]: Pressing the shutter button halfway will not initiate autofocus if
autofocus is currently assigned to the AEL/AFL button.
Face Priority
AF
Choose whether the AEL/AFL and shutter buttons perform the same or
different functions when faces are detected.
If [On] is selected, the camera will focus on faces or eyes when the AEL/
AFL button is pressed.
If [Off] is selected, the camera will instead focus on the current AF target.
