Using AF to Focus (AF Method)
2
Focus the subject.
 Press the shutter button halfway to focus.
 When focus is achieved, the AF point
turns green and the beeper sounds. (If
[AF operation] is set to [Servo AF], the
AF point turns blue and the beeper will
not sound.)
 If focus is not achieved, the AF point will
turn orange.

Take the picture.
 Press the shutter button completely
(p.64).
 If the subject’s face is significantly out of focus, face detection will not be
possible. You can prevent this by setting [Continuous AF] to [Enable].
 An object other than a human face may be detected as a face.
 Face detection will not work if the face is very small or large in the picture, too
bright or too dark, or partially hidden.
 The <p> may cover only part of the face.
 If you press the shutter button to focus again while the access lamp is
illuminated after shooting, the focus mode may momentarily switch to
[FlexiZone - Multi]. (Face detection will not function.)
 When you press the <XL> button, the <t> AF point will appear at the
center of the screen. Drag it to move the AF point. Press the <XL> button
again, and the AF point will move to the detected subject.
 Since AF is not possible with a face detected near the edge of the picture, the
<p> will be grayed out. If you press the shutter button halfway, the subject
will be focused in [FlexiZone - Multi] AF method with automatic selection.
