Z1
When you set the power switch to < k>, 
the [Z 1] and [Z 2] tabs will show 
functions dedicated to movie shooting.
 AF method
The AF methods are the same as described on pages 206-213. You 
can select [ u+Tracking ], [FlexiZone - Multi ], or [FlexiZone - 
Single ].
 Movie Servo AF
During movie shooting, the camera focuses on the subject 
continuously. The default setting is [ Enable].
When [Enable] is set:
The camera focuses on the subj ect continuously even when you 
are not pressing the shutter button halfway.
Since this drives the lens cont inuously, it will consume battery 
power and shorten the total possible movie shooting time (p.235).
With certain lenses, the lens operation noise during focusing may 
be recorded. If this happens, use an external microphone 
(commercially available) to reduc e lens operation noise in the 
movie. Also, using certain STM l enses (for example, the EF-S18-
55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM) will reduce lens operation noise.
If you want to set the lens’s focus mode switch to < MF> during 
Movie Servo AF, first set the power switch to < 1>.

• Also see “Shooting Conditions that Make Focusing Difficult” on page 
212.
 Movie Servo AF will pause during zooming or in magnified view.

AF with shutter button during movie recording
While shooting a movie, you can also take a still photo by pressing 
the shutter button completely. By default, AF operation is set to 
[One-Shot AF ].
When [One-Shot AF] is set:
• You can refocus and shoot a still photo by pressing the shutter button halfway while shooting a movie.
• When shooting a still subject,  you can perform shooting in 
precise focus.
When [Disable] is set:
• You can immediately start shooting a still photo by pressing the shutter button, even though focus is not achieved. This is 
effective when you want to give priority to the shooting 
opportunity rather than to focusing.

check horizontal or vert ical tilt when shooting.
