Using AF to Focus (AF Method)
4
Take the picture.
Check the focus and exposure, then
press the shutter button completely to
take the picture (p.286).
Focusing on a subject other than a human face
Press <9> or <0>, and the AF frame < > will appear in the
center. Then use <9> to move the AF frame over the desired
subject. Once the AF frame achieves focus, it will track the subject
even if the subject moves or if you change the composition.
If the subject’s face is significantly out of focus, face detection will not be
possible. You can prevent this by setting [z5: 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.
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 in this situation, the subject will be focused on in FlexiZone -
Multi method with automatic selection.
The shape of the AF frame < > varies depending on the size and shape
of the subject.
