If the camera detects the subject's eyes, the focus point will instead appear over one or the other of their eyes (face/eye-detection AF). If the subject looks away after their face is detected, the focus point will move to track their motion. [Animal] If a dog, cat, or bird is detected, the focus point will appear over the face of the animal in question (animal-detection AF). If the camera detects the subject's eyes, the focus point will instead appear over one or the other of their eyes. If the camera can detect neither face nor eyes, it will display a focus point over the detected animal. [Vehicle] If a car, motorcycle, train, airplane, or bicycle is detected, the focus point will appear over the vehicle in question. • In the case of trains, the camera will detect only the front end. • With planes, the camera will detect the body, nose, or cockpit depending on the aircraft's size. [Auto] The camera detects humans, animals, and vehicles and chooses a subject for focus automatically. [Subject detection off] Subject detection disabled. 38 Settings
