f Selecting the AF ModeN
The AF mode is the autofocusing operation method. Three AF modes
are provided. One-Shot AF is suited for still subjects, while AI Servo AF
is for moving subjects. And AI Focus AF switches from One-Shot AF to
AI Servo AF automatically if the still subject starts moving. In the <1>
(Full Auto) mode, AI Focus AF will be set automatically.
If an Extender (optional) is attached and the maximum aperture of the lens
is f/5.6 or smaller, AF will not be possible. For details, see the Extender's
instructions.
<AF> stands for auto focus. <MF> stands for manual focus.
