thrown off by any obstacle passing between the camera and
subject. The exposure is set at the moment the picture is taken.

lock functions. If you have set both these Custom Functions and you
execute both Custom Function operations, the latter operation will not
work. The only exception will be when AF stop is executed after AF
start.
