Canon EOS 5D - Focusing Screen Ee-A Instruction Manual page 37

Enables automatic shooting when focus is
P.Fn-16
achieved at the fixed point of focus while the
shutter button is pressed fully
This takes the picture automatically when the subject comes to the
preset focusing distance. Focusing detection is performed using the
selected AF point.
Set the lens focus mode switch to < MF > and focus manually at the
desired point of focus.
Keep pressing the shutter button fully.
Using an accessory such as Remote Controller RS-80N3 which can
lock the shutter button relieves you from holding down the shutter
button while you wait for the subject.
Because the camera remains on standby while the shutter button
is fully pressed, battery power is used up more quickly. For long
periods of photography, use the DC Coupler Kit provided with the
camera.
When this function is used in combination with a flash, the flash
remains on standby at full charge. Consequently, the flash
batteries are used up more quickly. (The Speedlite's SE mode is
disabled.)
When you use a flash with this function, set the drive mode to
single shooting. If you select continuous shooting, the flash will be
unable to charge in time for successive shots and will not fire at
full charge.
If you set the drive mode to continuous shooting, set the number
of shots in P.Fn-20. If you do not use P.Fn-20, once the camera
focuses on the subject, continuous shooting will continue until the
capacity of the memory card is reached.
P.Fn-16 cannot be used with manual focus lenses or with lenses
that are too slow to be used with autofocusing.
Do not use this function when C.Fn-4-1/3 is set as shots will be
taken regardless of whether the image is in focus.
Using an accessory such as Remote Controller RS-80N3 which can
lock the shutter button is recommended.

If P.Fn-17 [Disables automatic AF point selection] has also been set,
P.Fn-17 will override P.Fn-18 to disable automatic AF point
selection.
