SINGLE-SHOT AUTOFOCUS
When the shutter-release button is
pressed partway down, the camera
focuses until sharp focus is
confirmed and then focus is locked.
Focus will remain locked while the
shutter-release button is pressed
partway down or until after the
shutter-release button is pressed all
the way down. Use Single-shot
Autofocus when photographing
non-moving subjects or subjects
that are outside the focus area.
See Focus Lock, page 27.
This camera has three autofocus modes that can be changed at
any time.
MEMORY: The Focus Mode setting can be stored in memory.
See page 99 for information.
When autofocus is activated by
pressing the shutter-release button
partway down, the camera will
continue focusing while the subject
is moving and lock focus when it is
still.
Automatic Autofocus Mode works
well in any situation, but is
especially useful for subjects that
move and stop suddenly.
The camera continues focusing
while the shutter-release button is
pressed partway down. The shutter-
release button can be pressed all
the way down when the subject is in
focus. Continuous Autofocus
should be used at sporting events
or other occasions when the subject
moves continuously.
