For pinpoint focusing over a narrower area than
with Single-point AF. Select one AF point <
O> to
focus.
Effective for pinpoint focusing or focusing on
overlapping subjects such as an animal in a cage.
Since Single-point Spot AF covers a very small
area, focusing may be difficult during handheld or
low-light shooting or for a moving subject.
Select one AF point <S> to be used for focusing.
The AF area is divided into nine focusing zones for focusing. Since all
the AF points in the selected zone are used for Automatic selection AF,
it is superior to Single-point AF in tracking the subject, and it is also
effective for moving subjects.
However, since it is inclined to focus on the nearest subject, focusing on
a specific target may be more difficult.
The AF point(s) achieving focus is displayed as <S>.
