Active Child Mode
• Do not adjust flash mode and exposure compensation settings after selecting the subject. If any
setting is adjusted after selection of the subject, the selection of the subject will be cancelled.
Deleting pictures, adjusting zoom or image mode settings (
A 83) will also cancel the selection of
the subject.
• In some situations, such as when the subject is moving rapidly, the camera may be unable to track
the selected subject.
• In some rare cases shooting subjects with which autofocus may not perform as expected ( A 27),
the subject may not be in focus despite the fact that the double border glows green. Should this
occur, switch to A (auto) mode and set AF area mode to Manual or Center, refocus on another
subject positioned at the same distance from the camera as the actual portrait subject, and use
focus lock (
A 91).
