AE/AF LOCK BUTTON Normally, AE lock (exposure recording) and AF lock

(focus lock) are both applied concurrently when you

press the “AE-L/AF-L” button. However, this can be

changed so that only AE lock or only AF lock is applied,

or so that that the AE lock status is maintained. If the

AE/AF lock is used with the “Maintain AE lock” setting,

pressing the “AE-L/AF-L” button again or releasing the

shutter cancels the lock.

In addition, though the auto focus (AF) normally

operates when the shutter button is pressed down

halfway, you can change this so that AF operates when

the “AE-L/AF-L” button is pressed. (In this case, AF

does not operate when the shutter button is pressed

down halfway.)
