■ Subject Detection Options
[People]
Human faces detected by the camera are identified by a border indicating
the focus point. 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.
[Birds]
If a bird is detected, the focus point will appear over the face of the bird in
question. 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 bird.
[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.
[Airplanes]
If an aircraft is detected, the focus point will appear over the aircraft in ques-
tion. The camera will detect the body, nose, or cockpit depending on the air-
craft’s size.
[Auto] The camera detects humans, animals, and vehicles and chooses a subject for focus automatically.
