Tips
✔ If stays in the viewfinder, the subject is located closer than the closest focusing
distance for the lens. Move away from the subject and refocus.
✔ If blinks in the viewfinder, autofocus is not possible and the shutter locks.
Refer to “Special Focusing Situations” on page 7-18.
✔ Single Servo AF is convenient for off-center subjects. Refer to “Autofocus with the
Main Subject Off-Center” on page 6-36.
When it is critical to obtain a
constant focus on a stationary
subject for multiple exposures, set
the Drive mode to Single-Frame, or
set the camera to Manual focus.
Focus tracking remains active as
long as you keep the Shutter
Release button lightly pressed. If
the subject stops and a appears,
the focus is still locked. If the
subject moves again, remove your
finger from the Shutter Release
button and lightly press again to
start autofocus with focus tracking.
