 Movie Servo AF
With this function enabled, the camera focuses on the subject 
continuously during movie shootin g. The default setting is [Enable].
When [Enable] is set:
  The camera focuses on the subject continuously even when you 
are not pressing the shutter button halfway.
  If you want to keep the focus at a specific point or if you do not 
want the lens mechanical sound to be recorded, you can 
temporarily stop Movie Servo AF as follows.
• Tap on the [ ] icon on the lower left of the screen.
• If you assign a button to [ Pause Movie Servo AF] (p.504) under 
[ 8 3: Custom controls ], you can pause Movie Servo AF by 
pressing that button. When you press the button again, Movie 
Servo AF will resume.
• If you assign a button to [ AF stop] (p.501), you can pause the 
Movie Servo AF while holding down that button. When you let go 
of the button, Movie Servo AF will resume.
  While Movie Servo AF is paused, if you return to movie shooting 
after operations such as pressing the < M> or < x> button or 
changing the AF method, Movie Servo AF will resume.
When [Disable] is set:
  Press the shutter button halfway or press the < p> button to 
focus.

Cautions When [Movie Servo AF] is Set to [Enable]
 Shooting Conditions that Make Focusing Difficult
• A fast-moving subject approaching or moving away from the camera.
• A subject moving at a close distance in front of the camera.
• With a higher f/number
• Also see “Shooting Conditions that Make Focusing Difficult” on page 
324.
  Since this drives the lens continuo usly, it will consume battery power and 
shorten the movie shooting time (p.359).
  With certain lenses, the mechanical  sound of the lens for focusing may 
be recorded. If this happens, you can use the Directional Stereo 
Microphone DM-E1 (sold separately)  to reduce the mechanical sound of 
the lens to be recorded.
  Movie Servo AF will pause during zooming or magnified view.
  During movie shooting, if a subject approaches or moves away or if the 
camera is moved vertically or horizontally (panning), the recorded movie 
image may momentarily expand or contract (change in image 
magnification).
  If you want to set the lens’s focus mode switch to < MF> during Movie 
Servo AF, first set the Live View shooting/Movie shooting switch to 
< A >.

 AF method
You can select [ u+Tracking ], [FlexiZone - Multi ], or [FlexiZone - 
Single ]. See page 316 for the AF method.
  Grid display
With [ 3x3 l] or [ 6x4 m], you can display grid lines to help you 
level the camera vertically or horizontally. Also, with [ 3x3+diag n], 
the grid is displayed together  with diagonal lines to help you 
compose with better balance by a ligning the intersections over the 
subject.
Note that the grid is not displayed during movie shooting.
  Movie recording quality
You can set the movie-recording format (MOV or MP4), movie-
recording size, 24.00p, and High Frame Rate movie shooting. For 
details, see page 351.
  Sound recording
You can set sound-recording functions. For details, see page 362.

 Movie Servo AF Speed N
You can set the Movie Servo AF’s AF 
speed and its operation conditions.
This function is settable when [
Movie 
Servo AF] is set to [Enable] and [AF 
method] is set to [FlexiZone - Single].Additionally, the function is enabled 
when using a lens supporting slow focus 
transition during movie shooting*.
When active :[Always on ] sets the AF adjustment speed to take effect 
at all times for movie shooting (before and during movie 
shooting). [ During shooting ] sets the AF adjustment 
speed to take effect only during movie shooting.
AF speed : You can adjust the AF speed (focus transition speed) 
from standard speed to slow (one of seven levels) or 
fast (one of two levels) to obtain the desired effect for 
movie creation.
* Lenses supporting slow focus transition during movie shooting USM and STM lenses released in and after 2009 are compatible. For 
details, refer to Canon Web site.
Setting [ AF method ] to [u+Tracking ] or [FlexiZone - Multi ] gives the 
same effect as [ AF speed] set to [Standard (0) ].

 Movie Servo AF tracking sensitivity N
You can change the Movie Servo AF’s 
tracking sensitivity to one of seven 
levels. This affects the responsiveness of 
AF tracking sensitivity when the subject 
strays from the AF points, such as during 
panning or when an obstacle cuts across 
the AF points.
This function is settable when [
Movie Servo AF] is set to [Enable] and [AF 
method] is set to [FlexiZone - Single].
Locked on: -3/-2/-1
This setting makes the camera less incl ined to track a different subject if 
the AF point loses the original subj ect. The closer the setting is to the 
minus (-) symbol, the less the camera  is inclined to track a different 
subject. It is effective when you want  to prevent the AF points from 
rapidly tracking something that is  not the intended subject during 
panning or when an obstacle cuts across the AF points.
Responsive: +1/+2/+3
This makes the camera more respons ive when tracking a subject that 
covers the AF point. The closer the setting is to the plus (+) symbol, the 
more responsive the camera is. It is  effective when you want to keep 
tracking a moving subject as its distan ce from the camera changes or to 
rapidly focus on another subject.
Setting [ AF method ] to [u+Tracking ] or [FlexiZone - Multi ] gives the 
same effect as setting [ 0].

video output with an external recording 
device. The movie will be output in Full 
HD quality (1920x1080). The default 
setting is [a].
 When [ a] is set:
• When outputting a movie via HDMI, the camera’s LCD monitor 
will be off.
• The shooting information, AF points, etc., will be displayed on 
the HDMI video output. However, if you press the < B>

external recording device, you  can see the video output without 
the information.
• Without having an HDMI connection, even if you press the   button while watching the camera’s LCD monitor, the 
output will still display the information.
• To record a video without an information overlay, check that no  shooting information or AF poi nt is being displayed on the 
external monitor, etc. Setting [ awithout info ] is recommended.
 When [ awithout info] is set:

How to prolong the HDMI output
 HDMI output in 4K quality is not possible. (Even if [ Movie rec. size] is set 
to  H , the movie will be output in Full HD quality.)
  HDMI output with no information will not display the card’s remaining 
capacity, battery level, internal temperature warning (p.391), or other 
warnings on the HDMI output device’s screen. Be particularly careful 
when setting [ awithout info ]. When [A+a ] is set, you can see the 
warnings displayed on the camera’s LCD monitor.
  When you are not shooting a movie, the power will turn off automatically 
after the set time for [ 52: Auto power off ] elapses. If you select 
[ A +a ] and set [ 52: Auto power off ] to [Disable ], the HDMI output 
will stop if you do not operate the camera for 30 min. (movie shooting will 
be cancelled).
  With [ awithout info ] set and you press the buttons such as < n> 
or < m >, the setting screen may be displayed in the HDMI video 
output. While recording a movie to an external recording device, 
operating the buttons is not recommended.
  Depending on the viewing environment, the brightness and color of the 
movie shot with the camera may look different from that of the HDMI 
video output recorded by an external recording device.
 By pressing the < B> button, you can change the information 
displayed on the screen.
  A time code can be appended to the HDMI video output (p.367).
  Sound will also be output for the HDMI output (except when [ Sound 
rec.: Disable ] is set).
