Focusing on a Moving Subject in Subject Tracking Mode

Use this mode to shoot moving subjects. Subject tracking begins once you select a
subject to be focused on, and the focus area will move and follow the subject.

1

Rotate the mode dial to s (subject tracking).

The camera enters subject tracking mode, and a white

border is displayed in the center of the frame.

2

Select a subject.

Frame the subject in the center of the border, and press

the

k button.

- The subject is registered.

- When the camera is unable to focus on the subject,

the border will glow red. Change the composition
and try again.

Once the subject is registered, it is framed by a yellow

focus area display, and subject tracking begins.

To change subjects, press the

k button to cancel the

currently selected subject, then select a new subject.

If the camera loses sight of the subject, the focus area

display disappears; register the subject again.

3

Press the shutter-release button to take the
picture.

If the camera focuses on the focus area when the

shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the focus area
display turns green and the focus is locked.

If the camera is unable to focus, the focus area display

will blink. Press the shutter-release button halfway again
to focus.

If the shutter-release button is pressed halfway while the focus area display is not

displayed, the camera focuses at the center of the frame.

Press the shutter-release button the rest of the way down to take the picture.
