9. Recording Motion Pictures How to set focus when recording a motion picture ([Continuous AF]) Applicable modes: Focusing changes depending on the Focus Mode setting (P142) and the [Continuous AF] setting in the [Motion Picture] menu. Focus mode [AFS]/[AFF]/ [AFC] [MF] [Continuous AF] Description of settings [ON] The camera automatically keeps focusing on subjects during recording. [OFF] The camera maintains the focus position at the start of recording. [ON]/[OFF] You can focus manually. (P158) • When the focus mode is set to [AFS], [AFF] or [AFC], if you press the shutter button halfway while recording a motion picture, the camera will re-adjust the focus. • 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 while recording motion pictures, it may take time to come into focus. 243
