Predictive AF
When a subject is approaching or retreating from the camera at a constant rate, the focusing
function can track the subject and predict the focusing distance immediately before the picture
is taken so that the shot will be in focus at the moment of exposure.
® When the AF point is selected automatically, the camera uses one of three AF points to
focus on the subject. Tracking and predictive focusing is carried out using the camera
selected AF point.
# When the AF point is selected manually (->-57), the selected AF point tracks the subject.
Al Focus AF
Al Focus AF is set automatically in <0> (Full Auto) mode. At the time of the shot, the camera
automatically selects One-shot AF or Al Servo AF according to the state of the subject.
If the subject is focused in One-shot AF and the subject then begins to move continuously, the
camera detects the movement, automatically switches to Al Servo AF, and focuses continu­
ously as it tracks the subject.
