The camera focuses and the focus is locked when you press the shutter button halfway
down. Use this mode when the subject is motionless.
A (Automatic AF) (default setting):
The camera switches between [Single-shot AF] and [Continuous AF] depending on the
movement of the subject.
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.
MF (Manual Focus):

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.
