Using Subject Tracking

Use this function to take pictures of moving subjects. When a subject is registered,
the camera automatically moves the focus area to track the subject.

1

Register a subject.

When the white border is displayed at the center of the

screen, align the subject with the border and press the
k button.

When the border glows red, the camera is unable to

focus on the subject. Change the composition and try
to register the subject again.

When the subject is registered, a yellow focus area is

displayed on that subject and the camera begins
tracking that subject.

To deregister the subject, press the k button.
If the camera cannot track the registered subject

anymore, the focus area will disappear and the
registration will be canceled. Register the subject
again.

2

Press the shutter-release button all the way
down to take a picture.

The camera focuses on the focus area when the

shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The focus
area will glow green and focus will be locked.

If the focus area is not displayed when the shutter-

release button is pressed halfway, the camera focuses
on the subject at the center of the frame.
