●Focus Tracking with Lock-On

By preventing the camera from refocusing when your sub- ject is briefly obscured by another object, focus tracking with lock-on ensures that the camera will continue to track the main subject once the obstacle has moved away (con- tinuous-servo AF only). Choose the length of time before the camera refocuses from 5 (Long), 4, 3 (Normal), 2, and 1 (Short). To refocus before lock-on ends, press the Bor shutter-release button again.

Camera will wait before refocusing on objects behind the subject

Camera will track and focus on objects the same distance from the camera as the subject

Camera will wait before refocusing on objects in front of the subject

Note: Turn lock-on off for im- proved response when you need to switch rapidly from one subject to another and in other similar situations.
