Select this AF mode:
Hybrid
Continuous
Contrast
To perform this type of Auto Focus:
Combination of phase difference
and contrast focus
• Normally, you should use this mode.
At normal distance, high-speed
continual focus
Contrast type Auto Focus, which
allows Auto Focusing capabilities
even if the phase differential
sensor is blocked
IMPORTANT!
• Use of Continuous AF performs focus non-stop, so
battery power runs down faster than with Hybrid AF.
• Even if “Hybrid” or “Continuous” is selected as the
AF mode, the camera automatically uses the
contrast AF for focusing when “Free” is selected for
the Auto Focus area setting (page 82).
• Be sure to use Contrast AF whenever you have a
telephoto conversion, wide angle conversion, or
close-up lens installed (page 153). Note that
Contrast AF is slower to focus than Hybrid AF.
