AF Control System:

stored image sensor). AF operation starts when the shutter button is pressed halfway. AF in-
focus indicator lights upon ranging completion. Audible indicator (electronic beeper) can be

Three selectable modes:

2. SERVO: Focus continuously adjusts to follow the subject movement. Shutter can be
released at any time regardless of ranging completion.
