Dynamic‑area AF (S)
The focus point is selected manually. The camera focuses on the
subject in the selected focus point when autofocus is initiated, but
if the subject later briefly leaves the selected point, the camera will
focus based on information from surrounding points. Choose if
the camera has difficulty focusing, or for active subjects that are
hard to keep framed in a single point, and choose an option with
broader coverage if the subject is moving unpredictably or occu‑
pies a large area of the frame.
