The camera determines the main subject automatically from how you compose shots,
without detecting subjects.
Tracking frames are not displayed.

Caution

The following kinds of subjects may not be detected.

• Extremely small or large
• Too bright or dark
• Partially hidden
• Difficult to distinguish from the background
• Obscured by rain, snow, or dust clouds

People's posture or the color or shape of what they are wearing may prevent
detection. Tracking frames may also appear for subjects other than people.
The camera may not detect dogs, cats, birds, or horses, depending on the breed,
color, shape, or posture. Tracking frames may also appear for similar-looking
animals or non-animal subjects.
The camera may not detect two- or four-wheeled vehicles, aircraft, or trains,
depending on the type, color, shape, or orientation. Tracking frames may also
appear for similar-looking vehicles or subjects that are not vehicles.

Note

When pressing the shutter button halfway for subject selection, you can choose the
following subjects. In scenes without relevant subjects, the camera tracks other
objects regardless of the [

Subject to detect

] setting.

In [

], you can limit the available detection setting

options to your preferred options.
If it seems difficult for the camera to detect your preferred subject when you are
shooting people, animals, or vehicles with [Auto], it may be easier if you switch to
the setting option specifically for that subject.
To restrict AF to your specified AF area, set [

to [
