One-Shot AF
When an EF lens (except for manual focus lenses) is attached to the
camcorder, you can use the one-shot AF function during manual
focus to have the camcorder focus automatically only once on the
subject at the center of the screen.
1 Set the focus mode switch on the lens to AF in advance.
When using a compatible EF Cinema lens, enable automatic
adjustment on the lens (A 71).
[AF] will appear on the left of the screen.
By default, the AF mode is set to one-shot AF. If it has been
changed, continue to step 2. If it is already set to one-shot AF,
skip to step 4.
2 Open the AF [Mode] submenu.
[~ Camera Setup] > [AF] > [Mode]
3 Select [One Shot] and then press the joystick.
4 Press and hold the ONE-SHOT AF button.
The AF frame will appear at the center of the screen and the
camcorder will focus automatically. When you are using Face
AF, a white detection frame will appear around the face of the
person who has been determined to be the main subject.
When correct focus has been achieved, the AF frame turns green.
If the camcorder cannot focus automatically, the AF frame will turn red.
The AF frame will disappear when you release the ONE-SHOT AF button.

When the aperture value used is F11 or higher, Dual Pixel CMOS AF will not work and the camera will focus
using contrast-detection autofocus.
