•The focus area depends on the composition of the image. When the camera detects a human face, it focuses on that face (A69).

•In some shooting conditions, the camera may not select the appropriate scene mode that you intended. If this happens, switch to A(auto) mode or select the scene mode that you want to use when taking images (A22).
