About autofocus during continuous shooting
Although the camera tracks the subject in focus regardless of the settings for continuous shooting and [Shutter Type], the function behaves as follows in some cases.
- The focus is locked to the setting in the first shot when the F-value is greater than F22 under the following conditions.
- When [Shutter Type] is set to [Mechanical Shutter] and the continuous shooting mode is set to [Continuous Shooting: Hi+], [Continuous Shooting: Hi], or [Continuous Shooting: Mid]
- When [Shutter Type] is set to [Electronic Shutter] or [Auto]
- When shooting with [Continuous Shooting: Hi+] or [Continuous Shooting: Hi] and [Shutter Type] is set to [Auto] or [Electronic Shutter], the continuous shooting speed varies according to the focus mode setting as follows.
- [Single-shot AF]/[DMF]/[Manual Focus]: The same speed as when an E-mount lens is attached (The focus is locked to the setting in the first shot.)
- [Continuous AF]: Maximum of 10 images per second
