Focus Mode
Your camera has two focus modes: autofocus and manual.
Autofocus
There are two default Autofocus modes:
✔
Single Servo AF with Focus-Priority
✔
Continuous Servo AF with Release-Priority
In either of these modes—and in any Drive mode—focus tracking is automatically
activated when the subject starts moving. Exceptions to this are when you are using Single
Servo AF mode and the focus has already locked, or you are using Continuous Servo AF
mode and are pressing the AE-L/AF-L button. Refer to the “Single Servo AF with Focus-
Priority (Stationary Subject)” section on page 9-7 or the “Continuous Servo AF with
Release-Priority” section on page 9-9.
☛ Do not attempt to turn the lens focusing ring or impede its rotation when the focus
mode selector is set to Single Servo AF (S) or Continuous Servo AF (C).
Custom Settings provide two Autofocus mode variations:
You can use Custom Setting #1 to assign Release-Priority to Single
Servo AF, and Custom Setting #2 to assign Focus-Priority to
Continuous Servo AF. Refer to “Custom Settings” on page 13-32.
