endlessly trying to focus unsuccessfully. You can set [AF Mode] to [Continuous (Auto Off)] to
deactivate the autofocus function if this happens and avoid unreliable focus operations.

- When using an EF lens that does not have a focus mode switch.
- While adjusting the aperture.
- If [AF Mode] is set to [Continuous (Auto Off)], when shooting in dark surroundings with the camera
mode set to [Auto].
