With Single Area AF, only the focus brackets selected among five focus areas is used for autofocus. This mode is useful for achieving accurate focus on a selected focus brackets when shooting a relatively stationary subject.

©: Dynamic AF

In Dynamic AF, you designate the primary sensor (the first to detect the subject), then if the detected subject moves, Dynamic AF automatically shifts to the next sensor that detects the subject, then the next again, shifting among the progression of sensors as the subject moves. Dynamic AF thereby follows and maintains accurate focus even on subjects that move irregularly. (Viewfinder indication does not change as sensoring shifts in Dynamic AF mode.) Dynamic AF Mode with Closest Subject Priority can also be activated in Dynamic AF mode. See next page.

Dynamic AF Mode with Closest Subject Priority

The Closest Subject Priority AF operation is possible in the Dynamic AF, where the camera automatically selects the focus area with the closest subject. Focus is always achieved at any of the five focus areas so you can avoid out- of-focus pictures.

In Dynamic AF Mode with Closest Subject Priority, focus area indication does not appear in the LCD panel and viewfinder.

When the telephoto lens is attached or the subject is very dark, the closest

subject may not be selected. In this case, use Single Area AF.

·9, 10: Dynamic AF Mode with Closest Subject Priority can be set to be cancelled in Single Servo AF in · 9 or activated in Continuous Servo AF in

·10 (page 72).
