At AF setting, the shutter release will be blocked
until the camera finds the optimum focus setting.
This ensures that no captures are made that are not
finely focused. However, this delay is normally only a
fraction of a second in good lighting conditions with
a clear focusing pattern.
Note!
In this mode the lens will focus at one distance and
will remain focused at that distance while pressure
remains on the Shutter Release button (A) .
In this way, you can focus on a object, temporarily
positioned within the focusing zone on the viewing
screen and then without releasing pressure on the
Shutter Release button (A) , recompose knowing that
the focus remains on the object chosen even though
it is now outside the focusing zone.
Note!
For objects close to the camera and with wide-angle A
lenses it is better to move the AF point as described
on page 78.
Releasing the pressure on the Shutter Release button
(A) and pressing again (half-press) would now change
the focus setting to the distance of the object within
the focusing zone.
See Manual mode on page 74 for a useful way
of working with manual and autofocus settings
combined.
