Changing the focus method using the focus mode dial
You can select the focusing method to suit the movement of the subject.
1. Turn the focus mode dial to select the desired focus method.
Focus mode details
AF-S (Single-shot AF) (default setting):
The camera focuses and the focus is locked when you press the shutter button halfway down.
Use this mode when the subject is motionless.
AF-C (Continuous AF):
The camera continues to focus while the shutter button is pressed and held halfway down. Use
this mode when the subject is in motion.
DMF (DMF):
After focusing automatically, make fine focus adjustment manually (Direct Manual Focus).
MF (Manual Focus):
Adjusts the focus manually.
Note
If the subject is too close, the image may show any dust or fingerprints on the lens. Wipe
the lens with a soft cloth, etc.
Once you change the focus method, the set focus distance is erased.
When [Focus Mode] is set to [Continuous AF], the beep does not sound when focus is
achieved.
Hint
If you cannot achieve focus for the intended subject using auto focus, select MF or DMF, then
shoot again.
