    [Mode 2]
    Emphasizes natural focusing and smoothness in movie recording.
    • Suitable for landscapes or relatively still subjects.
    • Keeps subjects in focus, even when the shutter button is not pressed halfway.

    REFERENCE
    When you select [Disable], the focus remains constant as movies are recorded.
