Option Description
A
Single AF
(default setting)
Focus is locked when movie recording starts. Select this
option when the distance between the camera and the
subject will remain fairly consistent.
B Full-time AF
The camera focuses continuously.
Select this option when the distance between the
camera and subject will change significantly during
recording. The sound of the camera focusing may be
heard in the recorded movie. Use of Single AF is
recommended to prevent the sound of the camera
focusing from interfering with recording.
