Choose whether the focus point selected by the camera continues in
use after you change AF-area modes using a control to which [
AF-area
mode ] or [ AF-area mode + AF-ON ] has been assigned via Custom
Setting f2 [ Custom controls (shooting) ]. This only applies if you
change AF-area modes while focusing with the shutter-release button
pressed halfway.
• Focus-point persistence applies if while the control is pressed, you
switch from an AF-area mode such as [
Auto-area AF ] in which the
focus point is chosen automatically to a mode in which the focus point
is selected manually.
