ZThe AF-ON button

For the purpose of focusing the camera, pressing AF-ON has the same effect as pressing the shutter button halfway.

ZPredictive focus tracking

In continuous-servo AF, the camera will automatically initiate predictive focus tracking if the subject moves while the shutter button is pressed halfway or AF-ON is pressed. In predictive focus tracking, the camera will track focus while attempting to predict where the subject will be when the shutter is released.

AF-area mode

AF-area mode determines how the focus area is selected in autofocus mode.Use the AF-area mode selector to select the AF-area mode.

Single-area AF

— Features Advanced

Photography

User selects focus area using multi-selector; camera

 

focuses on subject in selected focus area only. Use for

 

relatively static compositions with subjects that will stay in

 

selected focus area.

 

Dynamic-area AF

User selects focus area manually, but camera uses information from multiple focus areas to determine focus. If subject leaves selected focus area even briefly, camera will focus based on information from other focus areas (focus area selected in viewfinder does not change). Use with continuous-servo AF to follow erratically moving subjects and in other situations in which it is difficult to keep subject in selected focus area.
