Automatic Focusing Point Selection Mode

The camera automatically selects an individual focusing point after evaluating all 5 points simultaneously.

In One-shot AF mode, the system usually gives priority to the closest reliable subject.

In AI Servo AF mode, the system always gives priority to the central (cross-type) focusing point at first. (Refer to the section on “AI Servo AF” later in this chapter for more information.)
