Try putting set_aflock(1) between press("shoot_half") and release("shoot_half").
@philmoz :  do you know if that is that just for video mode?   I'd like to  change the wiki link for set_aflock() to capture this but its not clear to me when you need it inside a half-press and when you can put it just about anywhere ?


It may be camera dependant; but I've found it's needed for stills as well as video on my cameras.
