Notes on AF Area Mode
• When the digital zoom is in effect, the camera focuses on the subject in the center focus area
regardless of the applied AF area mode option.
• In some rare cases of shooting subjects for which autofocus does not perform as expected ( A29),
the subject may not be in focus.
• This feature cannot be used simultaneously with certain features. See “Functions that Cannot be
Applied Simultaneously” ( A90) for more information.

Subject tracking
Subject tracking begins once you select a subject to be
focused on, and the focus area will move and follow
the subject. See “Focusing on Moving Subjects for
Shooting (Subject Tracking/Face Priority Tracking)”
(
A87).

Face priority tracking
Once the camera detects a subject’s face, that subject
is automatically registered as the subject to be tracked,
and face priority tracking begins tracking that subject.
See “Focusing on Moving Subjects for Shooting
(Subject Tracking/Face Priority Tracking)” (
A87).
