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.
3
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.
