[Wide-area
AF (S)]
As for single-point AF except that the camera
focuses on a wider area.
Choose for snapshots, subjects that are in motion,
and other subjects that are difficult to photograph
using single-point AF.
During video recording, wide-area AF can be used
for smooth focus when making panning or tilting
shots or filming moving subjects.
If the selected focus area contains subjects at
different distances from the camera, the camera
will assign priority to the closest subject.
The focus areas for [Wide-area AF (L)] are larger
than those for [Wide-area AF (S)].

[3D-tracking]
The camera tracks focus on a selected subject.
Position the focus point over your subject and start
tracking by pressing AF-ON or by pressing the
shutter-release button halfway; focus will then
track the selected subject as it moves through the
frame. Release the button to end tracking and
restore the previously-selected focus point.
If the subject leaves the frame, remove your finger
from the shutter-release button and recompose
the photograph with the subject in the selected
focus point.
This option is only available when photo mode is
selected and [Continuous AF] is chosen for focus
mode.
