Notes About Subject Tracking

Digital zoom is not available.

The sound of the lens focus motor can be heard when the subject tracking function is working.

Adjust zoom position and apply shooting settings (

A38) before registering the subject. If these

settings are adjusted after the subject has been registered, subject registration will be canceled.

It may be impossible to register the desired subject, or the camera may be unable to track the

registered subject or may begin tracking a different subject, if the subject is moving rapidly, if
there is a significant amount of camera shake, or if the camera detects a similar subject. The
camera’s ability to accurately track the registered subject is also dependent upon the size and
brightness of the subject.

In some rare cases, subjects not suitable for autofocus (

A77) may be out of focus despite the fact

that the focus area glows green. In this situation, try focus lock shooting (

A78) by focusing on

another subject that is the same distance from the camera.

Some settings cannot be used with other functions (

A71).
