The EOS-1D X Mark II is equipped with 61-point AF. Not
only can all these AF points each be selected individually,
automatic switching between multiple AF points to track
the subject is also possible. The [AF area selection mode]
setting allows the selection of these AF point modes.
The two types of modes in which you can manually
select a single AF point to focus with are [Single-point
Spot AF] and [Single-point AF]. The four modes that can
switch automatically between multiple AF points to
capture moving subjects are AF point expansion (Manual
selection, 4 points [
]), AF point expansion (Manual
selection, surrounding 8 points), Large Zone AF, and
Auto selection of AF (during AI Servo AF).
Mode features are explained from P. 55 - 75, so you can
select the mode best suited to your subject's
characteristics and shooting scene.
Choose whether only one AF point is used,
or select from a vast array of AF selection
options
