Why does my XT-4 still attempt to focus despite being in manual mode?

Could Be Pre-Autofocus

Is Pre-AF enabled? If so, the camera autofocuses on a half-press of the shutter release. It is, without question, the absolute worst, most useless, frustrating feature on any camera I've ever owned. If Pre-AF is enabled disable it and you'll have the focus control you desire.
