Focus Area - Sony ILCE-7RM2 How To Use Manual

Depending on the lens you use, the angle of view may change little by little
during focusing. This change in angle of view may be more evident when the
focus mode is set to [Continuous AF] (AF-C) or [Automatic AF] (including
[Sports Action] in Scene Selection and when the subject is moving when
shooting in [Automatic AF] (AF-A) mode). This will not affect the actual
recorded images. Consult your Sony dealer or local authorized Sony service
facility on compatible lenses.
Hint
If you shoot movies when [Focus Mode] is set to [Single-shot AF] or [DMF], the
[Focus Mode] will automatically change to
continue to focus.
