QUICK AF FOR STILL & MOVIE RECORDING
Movies
Full-time Continuous AF offers the speed you need for burst shooting and professional-looking movies
Most interchangeable lens cameras
employ standard contrast-detection
autofocusing when shooting movies and
struggle to keep subject in focus, during
high speed still shoot. But the Sony SLTs
delivers the superior speed and precision
of full-time continuous phase-detection
auto-focusing even during high speed
stillandHDmovieshooting—thanks
to the breakthrough advantages of
Sony Translucent Mirror Technology. This
newlyenhancedQuickAFFullHDMovie
feature combines with high sensitivity
and efficient noise reduction to provide
professional results even when focusing
on fast-moving subjects indoors. When
the AF area is set to Local, you can also
switch the focus point from one part of
the scene to another while shooting.
