function will fail. For the latest generation of Canon IS lenses and all tele-lenses longer
than 300mm, lens IS function is recommended. For all the other lenses, IBIS is preferred.
When lens IS function is activated, if you power off the camera, the operation will not
finish until the IS module is parked. That may cause a delay of 2 or 3 seconds. Of course,
you will not notice it unless the camera is turned on immediately after being turned off.
3.3 AF settings
All the AF modes, i.e. AFS, AFC, AFF (for video), MF (please set AF/MF switch on the
lens to MF), are supported. You may use AF area of Single-point, Dynamic-area, Wide-area
and Auto-area. But please be noted, if AF area of Pinpoint is used, some lenses may not
perform well. In that case please use Single-point instead. You may also use face/eye
detection AF like using a native Nikon lens.
Some lenses may need AF fine-tune to get better
AF accuracy. However, sometimes different lens
samples of the same model may need different AF
fine-tune values. For example, we have encountered
two EF50/1.0L lenses that need +15 and -9 to get
the best AF accuracy. Thus, we don’t provide the
table of suggested AF fine-tune values anymore. Please try your lens and find the best
setting by yourself. Be noted, for some very fast lenses, e.g. EF50/1.0L, EF50/1.2L,
EF85/1.2L II, etc., correct AF fine-tune setting is a must to get sharp images.
On Z cameras, there is a Movie AF Speed setting on the menu (Custom Settings->Movie).
It may help users produce smooth focus transfer
effects. Currently, the following lenses support movie
AF speed setting. In the future, more lenses may be
added to the list. However, some relatively old lenses
may not support this function at all. They will never
be added.
EF 35/1.4L II
EF 70-300/4-5.6 IS II
EF 40/2.8 STM
EF 100-400/4.5-5.6L IS II
