points if subject briefly leaves selected point.

moving subjects.

(0 58); camera focuses on subject in selected focus point only.

f
3D-tracking
(11 points)
In AF-A and AF-C focus modes, user selects focus point using multi selector
(0 58).
If subject moves after camera has focused, camera uses 3D-
tracking to select new focus point and keep focus locked on original
subject while shutter-release button is pressed halfway.
If subject
leaves viewfinder, remove your finger from shutter-release button
and recompose photograph with subject in selected focus point.
In
AF-S focus mode, user selects focus point manually (0 58); camera
focuses on subject in selected focus point only.
A AF-Area Mode
AF-area mode can also be selected from the Custom Settings menu
(0 155).
AF-area mode selections made in shooting modes other
than P, S, A, or M are reset when another shooting mode is selected.
A 3D-tracking (11 Points)
When the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the colors in the area surrounding the
focus point are stored in the camera.
Consequently 3D-tracking may not produce the
desired results with subjects that are the same color as the background.
