❚❚ Subject Tracking When Auto-area AF is selected for AFarea mode, the camera can track the subject in the selected focus point. • Press J to enable focus tracking; the focus point will change to a targeting reticle. • Position the reticle over the target and press J again to start tracking; the focus point will track the selected subject as it moves through the frame. To end tracking and select the center focus point, press J again. Note that if you press the shutter-release button halfway to start tracking during still photography when AF-C or AF-A is selected for focus mode, the camera will track the subject only while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway; when the button is released, tracking will end and the focus point in effect before tracking started will be restored. • To exit subject-tracking mode, press the W button. D Subject Tracking 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. 62 Basic Settings
