halfway down, even if the subject is moving (Tracking focus). Press the shutter button halfway

Tracking a face

If you use the tracking focus function while the Face Detection function is activated, you can
select a face to be given priority and register that face with the camera. Even if the registered
face disappears from the screen, when it shows up on the screen again, the camera focuses on
the registered face.

When a specified face is registered in the camera memory and you use the Smile Shutter
function, the camera searches only for that face’s smile.

Notes

Tracking focus may fail to lock the focus, lose the subject or track different subject in the
following situations:

The subject moves too quickly.
The subject is too small or too large.
The subject is the same color as the background.
Under low light conditions.
Under conditions where the brightness varies.

When you use zoom functions other than optical zoom, the tracking focus function is not
available.
Tracking focus will automatically be canceled when the subject disappears from the screen
or has failed to be tracked. However, if the target of the tracking focus is a specified face,
the camera keeps tracking on that face even if the face disappears from the screen.
You may not be able to set some functions depending on the selected REC mode. For
details, see “Functions not available in some REC modes.”
