Focusing and shooting functions

The three focus modes S-AF, C-AF, and MF are available with this camera.

You can take pictures by combining S-AF or C-AF mode with MF mode.

Focusing is performed once when the shutter button is pressed halfway.

mode is suitable for taking pictures of still subjects or subjects with limited movement.
