Focusing changes depending on the Focus Mode setting and the [Continuous AF] setting 
in the [Motion Picture] menu.
¢ When [Continuous AF] is set to [OFF], the focus is locked to the position set at the start of 
recording.
Depending on the recording conditions or lens used, operational sound may be recorded when 
the Auto Focus is operated while recording a motion picture. It is recommended to record with 
[Continuous AF] in the [Motion Picture] menu set to [OFF], if the sound of operation bothers you 
to avoid recording the lens noise.
When operating the zoom when recording motion pictures, it may take time to come into focus.
