[HYBRID AF]
When you press the shutter button halfway, focusing is performed approximately by the 
Imager AF and you can check the subject on the LCD monitor. When you press the shutter 
button all the way, the AF is activated in the same way as with the [AF SENSOR] setting. The 
approximate focusing distance is obtained when the shutter button is pressed halfway so the 
time it takes to actually take the picture after pressing the shutter button all the way is 
shortened. When using S-AF+MF, this is very convenient as you can hold the shutter button 
pressed halfway and finely adjust the focus while checking the LCD monitor.

By setting [g FACE DETECT] to [ON], the camera will detect people’s faces in the frame 
and adjust the focus and metering automatically.

• In order to use the 

< button, [Fn FACE DETECT] needs to be set up in the menu in 

advance. 

g“; FUNCTION” (P. 91)

• After setting [g FACE DETECT] to [ON] while using the 

< button, the following functions 

are automatically set to the best settings for taking pictures of people.

• AF is performed by the image pickup device.

• The mirror is lowered and AF is performed by the 

AF sensor. (The mirror is down so the image 
display on the monitor freezes just before pressing 
the shutter button all the way.)

< (The setting changes each time the button is pressed.)
