i have the following problem:

if i manually focus and either place the cam app in the dashboard or dont do anything for a while, the cam goes into standby mode and by doing so the manual focus gets lost, meaning that i have to manually focus again..

is there no way from stopping it from "resetting" when going into standby or is there a way of preventing the cam from going into standby if i am not filming/doing anything?

help would be appreciated, its urgent!
