ting functions
C-AF (continuous AF)
The camera repeats focusing while the shutter button remains pressed halfway. When the 
subject is in motion, the camera focuses on the subject in anticipation of its movement 
(Predictive AF). Even if the subject moves or you change the composition of the picture, the 
camera continues trying to focus.
Press the shutter button halfway and keep it in this position.
• When the subject is in focus and locked, the AF confirmation mark lights up.
• The AF target does not light up, even when the subject is in focus.
• The camera repeats focusing. Even if the subject moves or even if you change the 
composition of the picture, focusing is tried continuously.
• A beep sound is output when the subject is in focus. The beep sound is not output after the 
third continuous AF operation, even when the subject is in focus.
