Changing the Autofocus Method (AF Method)

Quick Mode: f

The dedicated AF sensor is used to focus in One-Shot AF operation (p.95), using the same AF method as with viewfinder shooting. You can use nine AF points to focus (automatically selected). You can also select one AF point to focus and focus only the area covered by that AF point (manually selected).

Although you can focus the target subject quickly, the Live View image will be interrupted momentarily during the AF operation.
