With full-time AF active, the autofocus systems continually focuses to keep the monitor image sharp.
This also reduces the autofocusing time when taking pictures. When the camera is set to manual
focus, full-time AF is disabled. Turning the full-time AF function off can help conserve battery power.
Full-time AF can be turned on and off in section 2 of the P, A, S, and M menus (p. 44).
