Canon Continuous AF Explained: Pros & Cons | Canon Camera Settings Demystified
In today's video, we're diving into the world of Canon camera settings, specifically the Continuous AF menu setting. If you're new to Canon or transitioning from another camera brand, you'll want to pay close attention because Continuous AF on Canon cameras operates quite differently.
When you enable Continuous AF on a Canon camera, it kicks into action, tirelessly seeking focus whether you're actively using the camera or not. That's right – if your camera is on, it's on a mission to maintain sharp focus.
Now, this setting comes with both its perks and drawbacks. On the downside, it's a bit of a battery hog, so you might notice your battery draining faster than usual. But on the flip side, there's a substantial benefit. Your camera's LCD screen and/or electronic viewfinder (EVF) will never be caught off-guard when you bring your camera up to shoot.
This feature can be a game-changer, especially in fast-paced scenarios like weddings, where moments unfold quickly, and you can't afford to miss a beat.
Ultimately, whether Continuous AF is a lifesaver or a battery drainer depends on your shooting style and preferences. So, before you enable this setting, consider how it aligns with your shooting needs.
