For pinpoint focusing over a narrower area than
with Single-point AF. Select one AF point <
O > to
focus.
Effective for pinpoint focusing or focusing on
overlapping subjects such as an animal in a cage.
Since Single-point Spot AF covers a very small
area, focusing may be difficult during handheld
shooting or for a moving subject.
Select one AF point <
S
> to be used for focusing.
The manually-selected AF point <
S
> and adjacent AF points <
w
>
(above, below, on the left, and on the right) are used to focus. Effective
when it is difficult to track a moving subject with just one AF point.
With AI Servo AF, the initial manually-selected AF point <
S
> must
focus-track the subject first. However, it is superior to Zone AF in
focusing on the target subject.
With One-Shot AF, when focus is achieved with expanded AF points,
the expanded AF points <
S
> will also be displayed along with the
manually-selected AF point <
S
>.
