Using Auto Focus Temporarily (Push Auto Focus (AF))
When in manual focus mode, you can adjust the focus temporarily using auto focus by pressing the [Push AF/MF] button to focus automatically while the button is pressed.
This is useful when you want to move the focus slowly from one subject to another subject during manual focus.
-
Set [Shooting] > [Focus] > [Push AF Mode] to [AF] in the camera menu.
-
Slide the [Auto Focus] switch on the
(Focus) tab to the left position to turn it off. -
Press the [Push AF/MF] button.
Auto focus is active while the button is pressed.
Push auto focus is released and the focus returns to manual focus when you release the button.
Note
- The push auto focus function does not operate if the lens is set for manual focusing.
Hint
- The same operation is supported using an assignable button assigned with [Push AF/MF].
