Setting Guide (For Still Photography)

For subject-tracking AF, we recom-
mend that you set focus and AF-area
mode respectively to AF‑C and Auto-
area 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” rmware version 3.00).
Before proceeding, position the fo-
cus point as desired.
To start subject tracking, wait
until the chosen focus point
is over your subject and then
either press the shutter-re-
lease 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.
