Advanced Recording

MF/AF (Manual Focus/Auto Focus)

The MF/AF function works in CAM and M.REC mode only.

In most situations, it is better to use the automatic focus

feature, as it enables you to concentrate on the creative side of your recording.

Manual focusing may be necessary under certain conditions that make automatic focusing difficult and/or unreliable.
