About [H]
•You can focus on the subject more quickly than other AF modes.

shutter button halfway. This is not a malfunction.

• If the AF mode is set to fBl. the AF area is not displayed until the picture is brought into focus.
•The camera may detect subjects other than a person as the face. In this case, switch the AF
mode to any modes other than [fi] and then take a picture.
•The AF mode cannot be set in [FIREWORKS] in scene mode.

when, for instance, you do not want to miss a picture-taking opportunity.
