fl BASIC OPERATION (SHOOTING) 3. To release the shutter, gently depress the shutter release button fully. • The shutter cannot be released if the subject is out of focus. • Depress the shutter release button halfway down. While [0] is on, the camera-to-subject distance is fixed (focus lock). To refocus on another subject, lift your finger off the shutter release button. • When the drive mode switch is set to the Consecutive-Frame Mode 1, the lens focuses each time you release the shutter. • When using the SMC Pentax-F Soft 85mm f/2.8 lens, set the aperture between f/2.8 and f/4.5. See page 52 for details. Predictive Autofocus Mode When the camera senses subject movement during the autofocus operation, the camera will automatically switch the focus mode to the predictive autofocus mode to measure the speed of a moving subject, and predict where it will be at the moment of shutter release to maintain sharp focus on the subject. • If the subject is moving too fast, the shutter may not be released.
