Using AF to FocusN
About the AF point with Live modeYou can press the <S> keys to move the AF point to where you want to focus (it cannot go to the edges of the picture). To move to the center AF point, press the <L> button.
To magnify the image at the AF point, press the <u> button.
If focusing is difficult with the magnified image, return to the full view and use AF.
If the image flickers, making it difficult to focus, stop the Live View shooting and resume Live View shooting under the actual light source to be used. Check that the flickering has stopped, then autofocus.
If you autofocus in the full view, then magnify the image, the focus might be off.
The
AF is not possible with Remote Switch
Depending on the subject or the lens used, achieving focus may be difficult or take some time. In such cases, focus manually (p.98) or autofocus with Quick mode. (p.102)
Even when focus has been achieved, if you press the <A> button again, the lens will move to focus again.
The image brightness may change during and after the AF operation. If you want AF and AE lock to work separately, select the [7Custom Functions (C.Fn)] menu’s [Shutter/AE lock button] (p.158) and set it to [1: AE lock/AF].
The AF speed may be different during the full view and magnified view.
