REC Mode/Recording Techniques

Q30
Why can't I seem to get Intelligent AF to work well? Why don't any focus frames appear on the monitor screen?
A30
Intelligent AF may not work well and/or focus frames may not appear under the following conditions.
  • A subject that is too small
  • Too bright or too dark shooting conditions 
  • Subject that is moving very fast
  • Subject very close to the edge of the frame
  • Subject and background of the similar color
  • Hang movement or violent camera movement
  • Identical or very similar overall image pattern


*1:If the focus frame does not align with the subject you want, try using Spot AF or Tracking AF.
*2:If the camera cannot find a subject, it will switch to Spot AF.
Initially, no focus frame will appear on the monitor screen.
Half-pressing the shutter button will display a focus frame.
