AF-S (Single-shot AF): The product locks the focus once focusing is
complete. Use this when the subject is motionless.
AF-C (Continuous AF): The product continues to focus while the shutter
button is pressed and held halfway down. Use this when the subject is
in motion. In [Continuous AF] mode, there is no beep when the camera
focuses.
DMF (DMF): You can make fine adjustments manually after performing
auto focusing, letting you focus on a subject more quickly than when
using the manual focus from the beginning. This is convenient in
situations such as macro shooting.
MF (Manual Focus): Adjusts the focus manually. If you cannot focus on
the intended subject using auto focus, use manual focus.
