Adjusting the focus and brightness (exposure)
Taking pictures with Auto Focus
Turning on/off the AF Assist Lamp
[Custom] → [AF Assist Lamp] → [ON] / [OFF]
Illuminates the AF Assist Lamp when the shutter button is pressed halfway when it is too
dark to facilitate focusing. (A large AF area is displayed based on recording conditions.)
The AF Assist Lamp has an effective distance of 1.5 m (4.9 feet).
AF Assist Lamp is effective for a subject at the centre of the screen. Use the lamp by
positioning a subject at the centre of the screen.
If you do not want to illuminate the AF Assist Lamp when you take a picture in a dark
location (e.g. taking a picture of an animal in the dark), set this function to [OFF]. When
the AF Assist Lamp is set to [OFF], sharper focusing will become difficult.
The setting is fixed to [OFF] in the following case:
When [Silent Mode] is set to [ON]
Enabling/disabling recording when a subject is out of focus
[Custom] → [Focus/Release Priority]
[FOCUS]: Recording is disabled unless the focusing is performed properly.
[RELEASE]: Recording is performed when you fully press the shutter button to
place priority on the shutter release timing that helps to avoid missed
opportunities.
Note that a picture may be out of focus when [RELEASE] is set, even if the focus mode
is set to [AFS], [AFF], or [AFC].
This function is disabled during motion picture recording.
Enabling/disabling manual focus adjustment after AF
[Custom] → [AF+MF] → [ON] / [OFF]
You can manually perform fine focusing during AF Lock (pressing the shutter button
halfway when [AFS/AFF/AFC] is set to [AFS] or setting AF Lock using the [AF/AE LOCK]
button).
