This camera has 11 AF targets for focusing on the subject with auto focus. Select the optimal
AF target mode according to your subject and the composition.
There are two AF target modes: All target AF mode, which uses AF at all AF targets, and
Single target AF mode, which uses AF centering around one selected AF target.
B All target AF mode
The camera automatically focuses on the subject in front of
the camera from among the 11 AF targets. This is useful
for shooting moving subjects or relying on the camera for
focusing.
M Single target AF mode
(o Small-single target AF mode)
The camera focuses using one selected AF target. This is
useful for accurately focusing on the subject after
composing the shot. With M, you can focus using a
range that is somewhat larger than one AF target, but you
can only set the range within the AF target. When
[SMALL] is selected for [AF SENSITIVITY], the setting
display changes to o.

selected AF target, the camera focuses using the adjacent
AF target.
