AUTOFOCUS

Autofocus modes Single Shot or Continuous are activated by
pressing the shutter release to the half-press position.
The operative range is from EV 1 to EV 19 at ISO 100.
The point of focus is determined according to the vertical and
horizontal areas (see illustration) within the central rectangular
zone on the focusing screen.
Alternatively, an attached flash unit that has a similar facility (a
Metz 54/70, for example) can also be used. This feature can be
altered in settings.
True Focus is also classified as an autofocus function and
is normally activated by its own button on the grip. See later
section.
AF Assist light
When light levels are too low or the contrast of the subject is
too low, AF assist light is automatically activated if selected. The
operative distance is approximately up to six metres from the
camera.
AUTOFOCUS CHECK IN MANUAL MODE
See the following section for a description of how to use the
advantages of a quick autofocus check while remaining in
Manual mode.
