When the camera is activated, either by Eyestart or by pressing the
shutter-release button partway down, the AF system immediately begins
evaluating the scene to determine the location of your subject within the
frame. One of the following focus signals will be displayed in the
viewfinder data panel:
[blinking]
Continuous AF mode/focus is confirmed
Focus is locked
Focus cannot be confirmed.
• No indicator will be displayed while the lens is focusing.
• If your subject is moving, the camera will automatically enter
continuous autofocus mode. In this mode, the autofocus system will
repeatedly check and update focus until you press the shutter-release
button all the way down. At that time, the camera will predict where the
subject will be when the shutter actually makes the exposure and will set
the lens to this point so that even high-speed subjects shot in continuous
drive mode will remain in focus.
• If your subject is stationary when Eye-start first activates the autofocus
system, the camera will enter continuous mode. It will remain in
continuous mode if your subject moves before you press the
shutter-release button partway down. Focus will lock if it remains
stationary.
• In autofocus mode, if focus cannot be confirmed, the shutter will not
release.
