Description

The camera starts autofocusing but will not successfully autofocus.

Solution

Lens operation when AF is not available

You can specify lens operation that applies when autofocusing on a subject is not possible.

  • [ON] Continue focus search

    If focus cannot be achieved with autofocus, the lens is driven to search for the precise focus.

  • [OFF] Stop focus search

    If autofocus starts and the focus is far off or if focus cannot be achieved, the lens drive will not be performed. This prevents the lens from becoming grossly out of focus due to the focus search drive.
