Choosing a Subject Type for Autofocus
The class of subjects given priority during
autofocus can be chosen using the [AF
subject detection options] items in the
photo shooting and video recording menus,
which offer a choice of [Auto], [People],
[Animal], [Vehicle], and [Subject detection
off]. The subject detected by the camera is
indicated by a focus point.
•
In the case of the video recording menu, the choice of subject is made
via [AF subject detection options]> [Subject detection]. Separate
subject types can be selected for photo and video modes.
•
Subject detection is available when [Wide-area AF (S)], [Wide-area
AF (L)], [3D-tracking], [Subject-tracking AF], or [Auto-area AF] is
selected for [AF-area mode].
•
Human faces detected by the camera when
[People] is selected are identified by a
border indicating the focus point. If the
camera detects the subject’s eyes, the focus
point will instead appear over one or the
other of their eyes (face/eye-detection AF). If
the subject looks away after their face is
detected, the focus point will move to track their motion.
