Custom Settings Options
AF Sensitivity
Sets the sensitivity to be applied when adjusting the focus
according to the movement of the subject.
[+] - When the distance to the subject
changes drastically, the camera re-adjusts the focus
immediately. You can bring different subjects into focus one
after another.
[-Minus] - When the
distance to the subject changes drastically, the camera waits
for a short period of time before readjusting the focus. This
allows you to prevent the focus from being accidentally
re-adjusted when, for example, an object moves across the
image.
AF Area Switching Sensitivity
[+] - When the subject moves out of the AF
area, the camera immediately switches or moves the AF area to
keep the subject in focus.
[-Minus] - The camera
switches or moves the AF area at a gradual pace. Effects caused
by a slight movement of the subject or by obstacles in front of
the camera will be minimized.
Moving object prediction
Sets the level at which object motion detection is activated in
response to a change in the speed of the subject.
[0] - This is suited to still subjects.
Effects caused by a slight movement of the subject or by
obstacles in front of the camera will be minimized.
[1] / [2] - These are
suited to a subject that changes its moving speed. You can
prevent de-focusing caused by a sudden movement of the subject.
