How to set focus when taking a still picture (AFS/AFC)
AFS
“AFS” is an abbreviation of “Auto Focus Single”.
Focus is set automatically when the shutter button is
pressed halfway. Focus will be fixed while it is
pressed halfway.
AFC
“AFC” is an abbreviation of “Auto Focus Continuous”.
This mode allows you to compose a picture more
easily by continuously focusing on the movement of
the subject while the shutter button is pressed
halfway.
When taking pictures of a moving subject, the camera
predicts the movement of the subject and focuses on
it. (motion prediction)
•
It may take time to focus on the subject if you rotate the
zoom ring from Wide to Tele or suddenly change the
subject from a distant one to a nearby one.
• Press the shutter button halfway again when it is difficult
to focus on the subject.
• When the brightness is not enough, this will work the
same as [AFS].
• [AFC] will not operate with certain lenses. For details,
refer to page 13.
MF
Set the focus manually by rotating the focus ring.
