AF Working Range:

TTL-CT-SIR (Secondary Image Registration) phase detection type using Cross-type multi-BASIS (Base-Stored Image Sensor). Focus completion indicated by LED lamp and audible beep (Lamp blinks at 8 Hz when autofocusing is impossible; beep sound can be turned off)

Five focusing points provided.

Selected automatically by camera or manually by user

1) One-shot AF:

At focus completion, AF operation stops, AF lock occurs and the shutter release is enabled.

2) AI Servo AF:

AF system tracks moving subject until immediately prior to exposure, includes predictive focusing function, shutter release enabled at all times (however, predictive focus control has priority in continuous exposure mode); in-focus indicator does not light when focus is achieved, but blinks at 8 Hz when autofocusing is impossible.

3) Manual focusing:

Possible by setting the lens’ focus mode switch to “ M” and operating the lens’ manual focusing ring. In-focus indicator lights up when focus is achieved (with EF lenses having maximum aperture of f/5.6 or larger).
