Option e [Dynamicarea AF] h [Auto-area AF] Description The camera focuses on a point selected by the user. If the subject briefly leaves the selected point, the camera will focus based on information from surrounding focus points. • Use for photographs of athletes and other active subjects that are hard to frame using [Singlepoint AF]. • This option is available only when AF-A or AF-C is selected for autofocus mode during still photography. The camera automatically detects the subject and selects the focus area. • Use on occasions when you don't have time to select the focus point yourself, for portraits, or for snapshots and other spur-of-the-moment photos. • If a portrait subject is detected during live view photography, an amber border indicating the focus point will appear around the subject's face. If the camera detects the subject's eyes, the amber border will instead appear around an eye (face/eye-detection AF). This frees you to concentrate on composition and your subject's expression when photographing active portrait subjects (0 155). • Subject tracking (0 158) can be activated by pressing the J button.
