The camcorder will focus automatically using the highest AF speed and AF response as long as you hold the PUSH AF 79 button pressed down. NOTES • The focus will be locked in the following cases. - When > [v $ Camera Setup] > [Face AF] is set to [Face Only] and no face is detected. - When > [v # Camera Setup] > [AF Mode] is set to [AF-Boosted MF] and the focus is the manual adjustment range. • When the AF mode cannot be selected (A 80), Push AF (autofocus at the highest speed) is not available either. AF-Boosted MF In this focus mode, you can focus manually most of the way and let the camcorder finish focusing automatically. This is very convenient when you want to make certain that your 4K recordings are in sharp focus. Additionally, with this mode, if the camcorder cannot evaluate how to adjust the focus, it will not perform unreliable focus adjustments. This results in an overall more stable focusing operation than with continuous AF. 1 Set the FOCUS switch to A. • @ appears on the left of the screen. 2 Set [AF Frame] to a setting other than [Automatic] (steps 1-2, A 81). 3 Select [AF Mode]. > [v # Camera Setup] > [AF Mode] 4 Select [AF-Boosted MF] and then press SET. • When the focus is in the manual adjustment range, the focus frame will appear in yellow. 5 If necessary, change the size and position of the AF frame (A 81). 6 Turn the focus ring to adjust the focus. • Focus manually to bring the subject closer into focus.
