Using Subject Tracking
Use this mode to focus on a subject that is moving when taking images. When you register a
subject, subject tracking begins and the focus area automatically follows the subject.
1
Register a subject.
• Align the subject that you want to register with the white
border in the center of the monitor and press the k button.
• When the camera is unable to focus on the subject, the
border will glow red. Change the composition and try
registering the subject again.
• When the subject is registered, a yellow border (focus area)
is displayed around that subject and the camera begins
tracking that subject.
• To cancel subject registration, press the k button.
• If the camera can no longer track the registered subject, the focus area will disappear and
the registration will be canceled. Register the subject again.
2
Press the shutter-release button fully to take
the image.
• The camera focuses on the focus area when the shutter
release button is pressed halfway. The focus area will glow
green and focus will be locked.
• If the shutter-release button is pressed halfway while the
focus area is not displayed, the camera focuses on the area
in the center of the frame.
