Changing the AF Frame Mode
91
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.
