Face priority: The camera sets focus for the face in the double yellow border while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway; if the camera can no longer detect the subject (because, for example, the subject has looked away), borders will no longer be displayed.

Wide area and normal area: The camera focuses on the subject in the selected focus point while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.

Subject tracking: The camera focuses on the current subject. To end tracking, press 1.

DSubject Tracking

Some time may be required for the camera to initiate focus. The camera may be unable to track subjects if they are small, moving quickly, or a similar color to the background, or if both the subject and the background are very bright or very dark, the brightness and color of the subject or background varies greatly, or the subject visibly changes size.

The focus point will blink green and the monitor may brighten or darken while the camera focuses. If the camera is able to focus, the focus point will be displayed in green; if the camera is unable to focus, the focus point will blink red. Note that pictures can be taken even when the focus point blinks red. Check focus in the monitor before shooting.

5Take the picture.

Press the shutter-release button the rest of the way down to shoot. The monitor will turn off. When shooting is complete, the photograph will be displayed in the monitor for 4 s or until the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. The camera will then return to live view mode.

6Exit live view mode.
