mode.
• In k, the focus is adjusted continuously, tracking the moving object as
long as the shutter release button is kept pressed halfway.
• In l, the focus is locked (focus lock) while the focus indicator ] is
displayed in the viewfinder. To focus on another subject, take your finger off
the shutter release button first.
• The shutter cannot be released until the subject is in focus in l. If the

discharge automatically several times, making it easier to focus on the
subject if the subject is in a dark area and the built-in flash is available.

to adjust the focus in f or k, the camera automatically tracks the
subject if it is determined to be a moving object.
• Always set the camera to l when using the Quick-Shift Focus System on
