Menu item details

Focus Priority:

Standard:
Uses the standard aperture drive system.
Silent Priority:

Note

  • When [Focus Priority] is selected, sound from the aperture drive may be audible, or the aperture effect may not be visible on the monitor. To avoid these phenomena, change the setting to [Standard].
  • When [Silent Priority] is selected, the focusing speed may become slower, and it may be more difficult to focus on a subject.
  • The effect may differ depending on the lens you use and the shooting conditions.
