Subject-Tracking AF For subject-tracking AF, we recommend that you set focus and AF-area mode respectively to AF‑C and Autoarea AF. Once tracking starts, focus will follow the subject through the frame while the AF‑­ON button is pressed or the shutter-release button is pressed halfway (note that the discussion in this section applies only from camera"C"firmware version 3.00). Before proceeding, position the focus point as desired. To start subject tracking, wait until the chosen focus point is over your subject and then either press the shutter-release button halfway or press the AF‑ON button: the focus point will turn amber and the camera will track the subject until the chosen button is re- leased. Subject tracking can also be started by pressing J or tapping your subject in the display. 38
