Selecting the AF Mode

• About Predictive AF

If the subject approaches or retreats from the camera at a constant rate,

the camera tracks the subject and predicts the focusing distance

immediately before the picture is taken. It thus predicts the distance where

the subject will be at the moment of exposure. This is for obtaining a more

accurate focus.
• In the automatic focusing point selection mode (-»page 45), the camera

first uses the center focusing point to focus. If the subject later moves

away from the center focusing point, focus tracking continues as long as

the subject is covered by another focusing point. The active focusing

point does not flash.

• In the manual focusing point selection mode (-»page 45), the focusing

point that flashes in red is used for predictive AF.

[OJn With C.Fn-4-2, you can lock the focus momentarily by pressing the <*-c.Fn>

button even while Al Servo AF is in effect, (-»page 88)

Al Focus AF for Still and Moving Subjects

The AF mode changes

automatically to suit the subject.

► If the subject focused in the One-

Shot AF mode starts to move, the
camera detects the subject
movement and switches
automatically to Al Servo AF to
continue tracking the subject.
