AF: Changing the Autofocus Operationt
Suited for still subjects. When you press the shutter button halfway, the
camera will focus only once.
When focus is achieved, the AF point will turn green and the beeper will
sound.
With evaluative metering (p.146), the exposure setting will be set at the
same time focus is achieved.
While you hold down the shutter button halfway, the focus will be locked.
You can then recompose the shot if desired.
This AF operation is suited for moving subjects. While you hold down
the shutter button halfway, the subject will be focused continuously.
The exposure is set at the moment the picture is taken.
During continuous shooting, the AF operation for shots after the first one is
as follows.
• When using a lens with “STM” in its name, such as the EF-M18-55mm
f/3.5-5.6 IS STM, the camera can keep focusing and shooting
continuously. With other lenses, the focus will be locked for the second
and subsequent frames during continuous shooting.
When using a lens with “STM” in its name, the continuous shooting speed
becomes slower since the camera keeps focusing and shooting continuously.
Setting the [AF method] to [FlexiZone - Single] is recommended.
Depending on the shooting conditions, it may take a moment until the
shutter is released.
Depending on the lens used, the distance to the subject and the subject’s
speed, the camera may not be able to achieve correct focus.
If you operate the zoom during continuous shooting, the focus may be lost.
Shoot after using the zoom to obtain the desired composition.
When focus is achieved, the AF point will turn blue.
When [FlexiZone - Multi] is set, press the shutter button halfway to fix the
AF points.
When [u (face)+Tracking] is set, the AF point is fixed during continuous
shooting.
One-Shot AF for Still Subjects
Servo AF for Moving Subjects
If [53: Beep] is set to [Disable], the beeper will not sound when focus is
achieved.
