Personal Function Settings Enables automatic shooting when focus is achieved at the fixed point of focus while the shutter button is pressed fully O This takes the picture automatically when the subject comes to the preset focusing distance. Focusing detection is performed using the selected AF point. O Set the lens focus mode switch to and focus manually at the desired point of focus. W O Keep pressing the shutter button fully. O Using an accessory such as Remote Controller RS-80N3 which can lock the shutter button relieves you from holding down the shutter button while you wait for the subject. O Because the camera remains on standby while the shutter button is fully pressed, battery power is used up more quickly. For long periods of photography, use the DC Coupler Kit. O When this function is used in combination with a flash, the flash remains on standby at full charge. Consequently, the flash batteries are used up more quickly. (The Speedlite's SE mode is disabled.) O When you use a flash with this function, set the drive mode to single-frame shooting. If you select continuous shooting, the flash will be unable to charge in time for successive shots and will not fire at full charge. 4 O If you set the drive mode to continuous shooting, set the number of shots in P.Fn-20. If you do not use P.Fn-20, once the camera focuses on the subject, continuous shooting will continue until the capacity of the memory card is reached. O P.Fn-16 cannot be used with manual focus lenses or with lenses that are too slow to be used with autofocusing. O Do not use this function when C.Fn-4-1/3 is set as shots will be taken regardless of whether the image is in focus. Using an accessory such as Remote Controller RS-80N3 which can lock the shutter button is recommended. Disables automatic AF point selection Specifying Camera Settings in the EOS Viewer Utility O When you select beyond the peripheral AF point, the selection stops there. It makes selecting a peripheral AF point faster. O If C.Fn-11-2 has been set, you can switch to automatic AF point selection by pressing the < > button during autofocusing. ( "Selecting the AF Point" in the camera's Instruction Manual) O If automatic AF point selection has been preset at [AF frame registration] setting, the preset setting remains valid.
