When the shutter release button is pressed halfway to focus
on the subject, the focus is locked at that position.
• The focus is locked while II is lit. To focus on another
subject, take your finger off the shutter release button first.
• The shutter cannot be released until the subject is in focus, tf
the subject is too close to the camera, move back and take
the picture. Adjust the focus manually if it is difficult to focus
on the subject (p.70). (p.126)
• Press the shutter release button halfway. The AF assist light
will flash automatically, making it easier to focus on the
subject if the subject is in a dark area. (Effective range: up to
5 m)
The subject is kept in focus by continuous adjustment while
the shutter release button is pressed halfway. Even if the
subject is not in focus, the shutter can be released when the
shutter release button is pressed fully.
• When the shutter release button is pressed halfway to focus,
the camera automatically tracks the subject if it is determined
to be a moving object. The lens will automatically operate and
continuously focus on the subject.
Look through the viewfinder
and press the shutter release
button halfway.
