MULTI-FUNCTION RECORDING
FULL-TIME AF
With full-time AF active, the autofocus systems continually focuses to keep the monitor image sharp.
This also reduces the autofocusing time when taking pictures. Full-time AF can be activated in the
custom 1 section of the multi-function recording mode menu (p. 50).
When the monitor is turned off or when the camera is set to manual focus, full-time AF is disabled.
Turning the full-time AF function off can help conserve battery power.
METERING MODES
The icons indicating both metering modes are
displayed on the monitor only. The metering mode is
set in the custom 1 section of the multi-function
recording mode menu (p. 50).
Multi-segment metering uses 270 segments to
measure luminance and colour. This data is combined
with distance information to calculate the camera
exposure. This advanced metering system will give
accurate worry-free exposures in almost all situations.
Spot metering uses a small area within the image to calculate
the exposure. When this mode is selected, the LCD monitor will
automatically activate if off and a small circle will appear in the
middle of the live image indicating the measuring area. The spot
allows precise exposure measurements of a particular object
without being influenced by extremely bright or dark areas within
the scene. If the LCD monitor is turned off, the spot-metering
mode will remain active.
