Use this function in the following situations:

●When shooting a moving subject.

●When the distance to the subject changes (so its size in the LCD monitor or the viewfinder changes), such as when the subject is backing away.

●When shooting on a reflective natural background such as at the beach or when skiing.

●When shooting objects under a spotlight.

●When zooming.
