A (Auto) Mode
Basic shooting operations can be performed. In addition, the options of shooting
menu (A58) can be adjusted according to the shooting conditions and the kind
of images you want to capture.
• The focus area for autofocus differs depending on
the setting of AF area mode that can be selected in
the A menu icon after pressing the d button.
• When AF area mode is set to Face priority (default
setting), the camera focuses as follows:
- The camera detects and focuses on faces (see
“Using Face Detection” (A62) for more
information).
- If no faces are detected, the camera automatically selects one or more of the 9
focus areas containing the subject closest to the camera. When the subject is
in focus, the focus area (active focus area) lights in green (maximum of 9
areas).
