Cybershot DSC-W370 Auto focus

[Josh_Elf]

Hi,

I am trying to film a long time lapse with my camera, just to see what it turns out like, and whenever i leave it pointing at the sky the camera will persist in refocusing. Thus ruining the entire time lapse, it will continue to do this every few seconds untill the video is stopped. Even when idling it will keep focusing!

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks

Hello Josh_Elf - Welcome to the Sony Forums

Have you tried adjusting the focus settings as detailed on page 48 of the manual:

With 'Center AF' and 'AF Lock' activated, you may find that this cuts down the amount of focusing going on.

Thanks,

Simon
