a5: Store Points by Orientationa5: Store Points by Orientation
This option lets you concentrate on shooting without having to worry
about focus-point selection. Choose whether the camera uses the same
focus point and AF-area mode in all orientations, or stores separate fo-
cus points and/or AF-area modes for use in “wide (landscape) orienta-
tion, “tall” (portrait) orientation with the camera rotated 90° clockwise,
or “tall” orientation with the camera rotated 90° counterclockwise. The
options are [Focus point], [Focus point and AF‑area mode], and [O].
[Focus point]: Rotating the camera restores the
focus point last selected in the chosen orien-
tation. If you select [O] after choosing this
option, the camera will select the center focus
point for all orientations.

[Focus point and AF-area mode]: Rotating the cam-
era restores the focus point and AF-area mode
last selected in the chosen orientation. In the
example shown here, dynamic-area AF (S) is
selected when the camera is in landscape ori-
entation, 3D-tracking when it is rotated 90°
counterclockwise, and wide-area AF (L) when
it is rotated 90° clockwise.
[O]: The same focus point and AF-area mode
will be used regardless of camera orientation.
