Selecting The Af Mode - Canon EOS 30D Instruction Manual

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 Basic
Zone modes, the optimum AF mode is 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
instruction manual.
<AF> stands for auto focus. <MF> stands for manual focus.
