Subjects Not Suitable for Auto Tracking Focus

Subjects with little or

no contrast to their
background

Rapidly moving

subjects

A\^en there is an object

with high contrast in

the background (such

as a bright, shiny

object).

Subjects with little or

no contrast (such as a

object of the same
colour).

Dark subjects

Two subjects, one in
front of the other at the
same focal distance
(especially if one
subject has a stronger
brightness).

Many moving subjects
of roughly the same
brightness in the
viewfinder.

Hint:

• The camera follows the contrast of the subject; however if the subject is moving too quickly, or if the camera is

moved suddenly (tilting, panning, etc.), the camera may be unable to track the subject (this tends to occur

particularly when recording at close range using telephoto). When this happens, change framing to middle or

wide angle then resume shooting.

* Zooming in on a person often causes their contrast to decrease suddenly. In such cases, reframe the subject

as described above and resume shooting.

Note:

• If the subject is not focused precisely, auto tracking focus may not track the subject correctly.
