NOTES
NOTES
About the autofocus (AF) functions:
• The point where the camera focuses may change slightly depending on shooting conditions, such as subject,
brightness and zoom position. Check the focus before resuming shooting.
• When the desired focus point (subject) is closer than the minimum focusing distance, the AF frame will turn red
at the end of the lens’s focusing range.
• Autofocus may take longer in the following cases.
- When the frame rate set in the video configuration is set to 29.97P, 25.00P, 24.00P or 23.98P.
- With some EF lenses, the camera may take longer to focus automatically or may not be able to focus
correctly. Visit your local Canon Web site for the latest information.
• When using autofocus with compatible EF lenses, you can change various aspects of the autofocus function
with the following settings. Visit your local Canon Web site for the latest information on lenses that support
these settings.
- [AF] > [OPTIONS] > [AF Speed] to set the AF speed (the speed at which the focus is adjusted) to
one of 10 levels.
- [AF] > [OPTIONS] > [AF Speed Limit] to select whether the selected AF speed is applied at all
times or only while recording.
- [AF] > [OPTIONS] > [AF Response] to set the responsiveness of the autofocus function to one of
7 levels.
- While using continuous AF, you can hold the ONE-SHOT AF button pressed down to temporarily adjust the
focus using the maximum AF speed and AF response. This is helpful when you want to focus quickly after
focus was lost or to keep a subject in focus while you follow it.
• Continuous AF will not work in the following cases.
- When using an EF lens that does not have a focus mode switch.
- While adjusting the aperture, except when using an EF lens compatible with automatic aperture (A 238).
- While adjusting the focus using a remote controller attached to one of the REMOTE terminals.
- When slow & fast motion recording is activated.
- When [Camera Setup] > [Sensor Mode] is set to [Super 16mm (Cropped)].
- When a broadcast lens (A 238) is attached to the camera.
• Autofocus may not work well on the following subjects or in the following cases. In such case, focus manually.
- When an ISO speed or gain value in the extended range is selected (A 76).
- When the [Gamma] setting in the custom picture file (A 134) is set to one of the Canon Log settings or
[Wide DR].
- When using small apertures.
- When subjects at different distances appear inside the AF frame.
- Reflective surfaces
- Subjects with low contrast or without vertical lines
- Fast moving subjects
- Through dirty or wet windows
-Night scenes
