Notes on Continuous AF
◆
Because the camera focuses continually even when the Shutter button is not pressed, note the
following :
i
Watch the battery level carefully since the camera consumes more power in this mode than in other
Focus modes (S-AF and MF).
i
If the Power save feature is set to “OFF”, particular attention must be given to the battery level.

The picture is taken so that the entire image is
darker.
h
When the subject is too dark
Try using a + (positive) correction setting.
The picture is taken so that the entire image is
brighter.
