A (Auto) Mode

Used for general shooting. Settings can be adjusted in the shooting menu (

A68) to suit the

shooting conditions and the type of shot you want to capture.

You can change how the camera selects the area of the frame to focus on by changing the

AF area mode setting (

A68).

The default setting is Target finding AF.
If the camera detects the main subject, it focuses on that subject.
If no main subject is detected, the camera automatically selects one or more of the nine
focus areas containing the subject closest to the camera. See “Using Target Finding AF”
(
