❚❚ Choosing an AF-Area Mode The following AF-area modes can be selected during live view photography and movie live view: Mode Description Face-priority AF: Use for portraits. The camera automatically detects and focuses on portrait subjects; the selected subject is indicated by a double yellow border (if multiple faces are ! detected, the camera will focus on the closest subject; to choose a different subject, use the multi selector). If the camera can no longer detect the subject (because, for example, the subject has turned to face away from the camera), the border will no longer be displayed. Wide-area AF: Use for hand-held shots of landscapes and other $ non-portrait subjects. Use the multi selector to move the focus point anywhere in the frame, or press J to position the focus point in the center of the frame. Normal-area AF: Use for pin-point focus on a selected spot in the % frame. Use the multi selector to move the focus point anywhere in the frame, or press J to position the focus point in the center of the frame. A tripod is recommended. Subject-tracking AF: Use the multi selector to position the focus point over your subject and press J to start tracking. The focus point will track the selected subject as it moves through the frame. To end tracking, press J again. Note that the & camera may be unable to track subjects if they move quickly, leave the frame or are obscured by other objects, change visibly in size, color, or brightness, or are too small, too large, too bright, too dark, or similar in color or brightness to the background. 58
