Description
The focus point is selected manually. The camera focuses on the 
subject in the selected focus point only. Choose for subjects you 
can keep framed in the selected focus point.
The focus point is selected manually. The 
camera focuses on the subject in the selected 
focus point when autofocus is initiated, but if 
the subject later leaves the selected point for 
brief periods, the camera will focus based on 
information from surrounding points.
Choose for low-contrast subjects if the camera has diffi culty focus-
ing or for active subjects that are hard to keep framed in a single 
point, and increase the number of points if the subject is moving 
unpredictably or occupies a large area of the frame. Choose a set-
ting one level higher for subjects at the edge of the frame.
The initial focus point is selected manually. The camera uses color 
information to track subjects that leave the selected focus point 
and selects new focus points as required.
The camera automatically detects the subject and selects the focus 
point.
