Fujifilm FinePix S5 Pro User Manual

This section describes the options that control how your 
camera focuses: focus mode, focus-area selection, and 
AF-area mode.

Use the focus-mode selector to select the focus mode.

Camera focuses when shutter button is pressed halfway. 
Focus locks when in-focus indicator (l) appears in view 
finder, and remains locked while shutter button is pressed 
halfway (focus lock). At default settings, shutter can only 
be released when in-focus indicator is displayed (focus 
priority).

Camera focuses continuously while shutter button is 
pressed halfway. If subject moves, focus will be adjusted 
to compensate (predictive focus tracking 

➝p.55). At 

default settings, photographs can be taken whether or not 
camera is in focus (release priority).

Camera does not focus automatically; focus must be 
adjusted manually using the lens focusing ring. If 
maximum aperture of lens is f/5.6 or faster, viewfinder 
focus indicator can be used to confirm focus (electronic 
range finding), but photographs can be taken at any time, 
whether or not camera is in focus.

Manual focus is recommended when the camera is 
unable to focus using autofocus.
