Using AF to Focus (AF Method)
154
The dedicated AF sensor is used to focus in One-Shot AF (p.97), using
the same AF method as with viewfinder shooting.
Although you can focus on the target subject quickly, the Live View
image will be interrupted momentarily during the AF operation.
You can use nine AF points to focus (automatic selection). You can also
select one AF point to focus and focus only on the area covered by that
AF point (manual selection).
