How to set focus when recording a motion picture (Continuous AF)
Focusing varies depending on the settings of the [Focus Mode] and the [Continuous AF] in
the [Motion Picture] menu.

recording.

Depending on the recording conditions or lens used, operational sound may be recorded when
the Auto Focus is operated while recording a motion picture. It is recommended to record with
[Continuous AF] in the [Motion Picture] menu set to [OFF], if the sound of operation bothers you
to avoid recording the lens noise.
