Focus Mode Focus Mode
Use the focus mode selector to choose how the camera focuses.
• AF-S (Single AF): Focus locks while the shutter button is pressed halfway. Choose for
stationary subjects.
• AF-C (Continuous AF): Focus is continually adjusted to refl ect changes in the distance to
the subject even when the shutter button is not pressed halfway (note that this increases the drain
on the battery).
• MF (Manual): Focus manually using the focus ring. Rotate the ring left to reduce the focus distance, right
to increase. The manual focus indicator indicates how closely the focus distance matches the dis-
tance to the subject in the focus brackets (the red bar indicates the focus distance, the white bar the
depth of fi eld, or in other words the distance in front of and behind the focus point that appears to
be in focus); you can also check focus visually in the electronic viewfi nder or LCD monitor. Choose for
manual control of focus or in situations in which the camera is unable to focus using autofocus (
P 47).
