•A frame will follow a moving subject within a certain range.

•When the shutter button is pressed halfway, up to 9 green frames will appear on faces that the camera focuses on.

• If a face is not detected and only gray frames (no white frame) appear, up to 9 green frames will appear on the areas the camera focuses on when the shutter button is pressed halfway.
