7.1 Single servo AF (AF-S)

The single shot AF mode is most likely use for the majority of pictures you take. In this mode, once the autofocus locks on to the subject, it does not shift its focus point, even the subject distance changes. For example, if you focus on a subject matter that is 3 meters away and either you or the subject matter moves and the camera to subject matter distance is 3.5meters, the focus is still focused at 3 meters.
