Various Shooting Functions
Setting the Focus
Selecting a Focusing Method
Set the focusing method in [Focus] of the [Shooting] menu.
Multi AF
Measures the distances from 9 AF areas and focuses to the nearest AF area. This
prevents the center of the picture display from becoming out of focus and enables
you to shoot with a minimum number of out-of-focus pictures. (Default setting)
Spot AF Focuses on the area in the center of the frame.
Pinpoint AF Focuses on a smaller area than [Spot AF].
Subj. Tracking
Tracks the subject and continually focuses.
When the shutter release button is pressed halfway, the subject inside the frame
in the center of the picture display is set as the target to be tracked, and a green
target symbol appears. When a tracking target cannot be found, the frame flashes
red.
Automatic tracking is canceled after shooting, or in the following cases.
