Changing the AF Frame Mode

Face Detect

• Detects people’s faces and sets the focus, exposure (evaluative metering

only) and white balance ( only).

• When the camera is pointed at subjects, a white frame appears on the face

the camera judges to be the main subject, and gray frames (max. 2) will

appear on other faces.

• A frame will follow a moving subject within a certain range.

• When the shutter button is pressed halfway, up to 9 green frames will

appear on faces that the camera focuses on.

Tracking AF

You can choose the subject you want to focus on and shoot (p. 92).

• If a face is not detected and only gray frames (no white frame) appear, an

AF frame will appear in the center of the screen when you press the

shutter button halfway.

• If a face is not detected when Servo AF (p. 95) is set to [On], the AF frame

will appear in the center of the screen when you press the shutter button

halfway.

• Examples of faces that cannot be detected:

- Subjects that are far away or extremely close

- Subjects that are dark or light

- Faces turned to the side or at an angle, or faces with a portion hidden

• The camera may mistakenly identify non-human subjects as a face.

• If the camera cannot focus when you press the shutter button halfway,

the AF frame will not appear.
