Procedure
[r] (REC) * [MENU] * REC Tab * Continuous AF
When shooting a snapshot while “On” is selected for Continuous AF, Auto Focus is
performed and focusing is continually updated until you half-press the shutter button.
Continuous Auto Focus is performed during movie recording when optical zoom is
turned on while “HD/STD” is selected as the movie mode, regardless of the current
Continuous AF setting. If optical zoom is turned off, continuous Auto Focus is not
performed during movie recording, regardless of the current Continuous AF setting.
Before you half-press the shutter button, the camera focuses at the center of the
screen. If “ Free” is selected for the “AF Area” setting (page 41) when you half-
press the shutter button, focusing is performed for the area specified by “ Free”.
If “Face Detection” is turned on, focusing is performed in the area where a face is
detected.
