✤ The AF/MF function works in CAMERAmode only.
✤ In most situations, it is better to use the Automatic Focus feature, as it enables you to concentrate on
the creative side of your recordings.
✤ Manual focusing may be necessary under certain conditions that make automatic focusing inadequate.

manually.
