Personal Function Settings P.Fn-16 Enables automatic shooting when focus is achieved at the fixed point of focus while the shutter button is pressed fully ● This takes the picture automatically when the subject comes to the preset focusing distance. Focusing detection is performed using the selected AF point. ● Set the lens focus mode switch to MF (or M) and focus manually at the desired point of focus. ● Keep pressing the shutter button fully. ● Using an accessory like Remote Controller RS-80N3 which can lock the shutter button relieves you from holding down the shutter button while you wait for the subject. ● 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. ● 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.) ● 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. ● 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 CF card is reached. ● P.Fn-16 cannot be used with manual focus lenses or with lenses that are too slow to be used with autofocusing. ● 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 like Remote Controller RS-80N3 which can lock the shutter button is recommended. P.Fn-17 Disables automatic AF point selection ● During manual AF point selection, if you try to select an AF point beyond a peripheral AF point, the camera normally switches to automatic AF point selection. This Personal Function prevents this. ● When you select beyond the peripheral AF point, the selection stops there. It makes selecting a peripheral AF point faster. ● If C.Fn-11-2 has been set, you can switch to automatic AF point selection by pressing the < > button during autofocusing. (➞ "AF Point Selection" in the EOS-1Ds Instructions) ● If automatic AF point selection has been preset at [AF frame registration] setting, the preset setting remains valid.
