3D‑tracking
The camera tracks focus on a selected subject. This option is avail‑
able only in photo mode.
• 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.
• To end tracking and restore the previously‑selected focus point,
release the AF‑ON or shutter‑release button.
• If the subject leaves the frame, remove your finger from the shut‑
ter‑release button and recompose the photograph with the sub‑
ject in the selected focus point.

Auto‑area AF
The camera automatically detects the subject and selects the fo‑
cus point.
Caution: 3D-Tracking
The camera may be unable to track subjects that are obscured by other objects or leave the frame.

ter of the sub-selector to be used to quickly select the center focus point (page 15).
