Using Subject Tracking
1 Register a subject.
• Align the subject that you want to track with the
border in the center of the frame and press the
k button.
• When the subject is registered, a yellow border
(focus area) is displayed around it and the camera
begins tracking the subject.
• If the subject cannot be registered, the border is
displayed in red. Change the composition and try
registering the subject again.
• To cancel subject registration, press the k button.
• If the camera can no longer track the registered
subject, the focus area disappears. Register the
subject again.
2 Press the shutter-release button all the
way to take the picture.
• If the shutter-release button is pressed while the
focus area is not displayed, the camera focuses on
the subject in the center of the frame.
B Notes About Subject Tracking
• If you perform operations such as zooming while the camera is tracking the subject, the
registration is canceled.
• Subject tracking may not be possible in certain shooting conditions.
