when the shutter button is not pressed halfway (note that this increases the drain on the
batteries). r (CENTER) is automatically selected for autofocus mode (P 50); if Intelligent Face
Detection is on, the camera will continually adjust focus for the selected face. Choose for
moving subjects.

Focus manually using the focus ring. Rotate the ring left to reduce the focus distance, right
to increase. The manual focus indicator indicates how closely the focus distance matches the
distance to the subject in the focus brackets. Choose for manual control of focus or in situa-
tions in which the camera is unable to focus using autofocus (P 36). Intelligent Face Detection
