Figure: Mode Tab

MODE

Select one (1) of the following from the Mode drop-down menu:

Manual: When selected, all focus operations are manual.

Confirm: Enables the Center or Spot focus target. This mode provides additional focus assistance by using red,

yellow, and green color changes to the focus spot window. Inadequate subject illumination and/or contrast may

interfere using Confirm mode. For best results with Confirm mode, “rock” the focus ring: Focus through the point

of optimal focusing and back again in decreasing amplitude, as when “zeroing-in” for precision manual focus.

AUTOFOCUS MODES

When any of the following conditions are met, the Mode drop-down menu has additional options:

DSMC Nikon Mount and a supported lens is attached. The lens focus switch is set to “A” or “M/A”.

DSMC Canon Mount and a supported lens is attached. The lens focus switch is set to “AF”.

DSMC Canon MOTION MOUNT and a supported lens is attached. The lens focus switch is set to “AF”.

When any of the above conditions are met, the following options display in the Mode drop-down menu:

Single: When you press the key mapped to AF: Start, the camera performs single-shot AF. Optimized for rapid

focus even under low-contrast conditions. Works with both Center and Spot zones.

Continuous: When you press the key mapped to AF: Start, the camera attempts to keep objects in the target in

focus. Works best with good lighting and contrast. Works with both Center and Spot zones.

Touch Track: Dynamically updates a positionable AF point using the touchscreen. Only works with Spot zone.

Keep target on subject while moving across frame, as the lens continuously focuses on that target.

Rack: Enables rack focus. Only works with Spot zone. For more information, go to "Rack Focus" on page149.
