INTELLIGENT AF
Suitable for all objects. The camera automatically selects between
AFs and AFc.
AFs (single)
A meaningful option if the focus setting should remain constant for
an extended period of time. Allows greater control over focusing
and helps to avoid incorrect focusing.
AFc (continuous)
Suitable for objects in motion. Focusing is continuously adjusted to
the object in the AF metering field.
Facilitates an intuitive focus control, specifically in conjunction with
Touch AF.
CONTROLLING THE AUTOFOCUS
TOUCH AF
During video recordings, Touch AF facilitates a more intuitive focus
control, even if the main object moves outside the center of the
frame. See p.80 for more information.
▸ Briefly tap the LCD panel at the desired point
• Focusing is done after the touch.
SUPPRESSING CONTINUOUS FOCUSING
Continuous focus adjustments can be suppressed by initiating a
metering memory lock.
Use the following control elements depending on the currently
selected mode:
Intelligent AF Shutter button (tap and hold)
Joystick (press and hold)
AFc Joystick (press and hold)
The camera stores the focus setting. That makes it easier to
change the image section when focusing is fixed. The focus
remains constant as long as the control element is held. Automatic
focusing will only resume after the control element is released.
