Selecting the AF OperationN
This AF operation is suited for moving subjects. While you hold
down the shutter button halfway, the camera will keep focusing on
the subject continuously.
When focus is achieved, the AF point will turn blue.
The exposure is set at the moment the picture is taken.
When [z5: AF method] is set to [u+Tracking] or [Smooth zone],
focusing will be continuous as long as the Area AF frame or Zone AF
frame keeps tracking the subject.
When the drive mode is set to <o> for high-speed continuous
shooting, the maximum continuous shooting speed is approx. 4.0
shots/sec. The pictures will be taken with priority given to the
continuous shooting speed.
When the drive mode is set to <i> for low-speed continuous
shooting, the maximum continuous shooting speed is approx. 3.0
shots/sec. The pictures will be taken with priority given to subject
tracking.
When an external Speedlite is used, the continuous shooting speed
will become slower. Regardless of the <o> and <i> settings,
the maximum continuous shooting speed will be approx. 1.7 shots/
sec.
Servo AF for Moving Subjects
With Servo AF, the beeper will not sound even when focus is achieved
(except with <8: 5Cr> mode).
Depending on the lens used, the distance to the subject and the subject’s
speed, the camera may not be able to achieve correct focus.
Zooming during continuous shooting may throw off the focus. Zoom first,
then recompose and shoot.
When [Servo AF] is set, the image-recording quality cannot be set to
41 or 61. If 41 or 61 is set, the image will be recorded in
1 quality.
When [Servo AF] is set and [Multi Shot Noise Reduction] is set
(p.195), [High ISO speed NR] will automatically switch to [Standard].
