Fuji Fuji xt2 continuous focus

[andreas]

hi

Recently completed your xt2 120 xpert tips. Nice book - thanks!

I still am not clear about how the custom autofocus settings interact with the AF MODE selection. Which takes priority or does the AF MODE tell the camera WHERE to focus whereas the AF-C describes the TRACKING ALGORITHM within the focus frame?

Thanks for any insights!

The AF-C mode allows the camera to continuously focuswhile the shutter button is half-pressed; the AF-C custom settings provides different algorithms on how and in what ways the continuous focus system works using different approaches for tracking sensitivity and speed tracking sensivity, and when using Zone AF-C, zone area switching. Basically, putting the camera into AF-C allows the camera to utilize one of the four different continuous tracking custom mode settings, or the fifth custom one if you've created one.
