Sports AF: Custom Settings, Continued a6: AF Activation Choose [AF‑ON only] to split the functions of the AF‑ON button (or the control to which [AF-ON] has been assigned using Custom Setting f2 [Custom controls (shooting)]) and the shutter-release button so that the former is used for focus while the latter is used only to release the shutter. Lift your thumb from the AF‑ON button to lock focus and take more shots at the current focus distance or prevent the camera refocusing when an object passes between you and your subject. Highlighting [AF‑ON only] and pressing 2 displays an [Out-of-focus release] option; for sports pho- tography, confirm that [Enable] is selected. Focusing with Lens Function Buttons To focus using the L‑Fn or L‑Fn2 buttons found on certain lenses, select [AF-ON] for Custom Setting f2 [Custom controls (shooting)] > [S Lens Fn button] or [3 Lens Fn2 button] (page 15). F Mount Lenses with Focus Function Selectors If an F mount lens with a focus function selector is mounted on the camera via a mount adapter, the focus function buttons on the lens will perform the same role as the camera AF‑ON button when the focus function selector is in the AF-ON position.
