SSelecting the AF PointN

Shooting Tips

When shooting a portrait up close, use One-Shot AF and focus the eyes.

If you focus the eyes first, you can then recompose and the face will remain sharp.

If it is difficult to focus, select and use the center AF point.

The center AF point focuses the best among the seven AF points.

To make it easier to focus a moving subject, set the camera to automatic AF point selection and AI Servo AF.

First use the center AF point to focus. If the subject moves away from the center AF point, the other AF points will continue to focus- track the subject automatically.
