One-Shot AF for Still Subjects
Press the shutter button down
halfway to activate AF operation
and focus once.
➡ The AF point achieving focus will flash in
red and the beeper will sound. The focus
confirmation light <
● > at the lower right will
also light.
● When using evaluative metering, the
exposure setting is determined when focus
is achieved. The exposure setting and focus
remain locked as long as the shutter button
is pressed down halfway. You can then
recompose the shot while retaining the
exposure setting and focus (
→ 58).
If the camera cannot focus, the focus confirmation light ( ● ) in the viewfinder
blinks. If this happens, you will not be able to take a picture even if you press the
shutter button down fully. Instead, reframe the shot and focus again. See also,
“Manual Focus” (
→ 59).
