appear on other faces.
• A frame will follow a moving subject within a certain range.
• When the shutter button is pressed halfway, up to 9 green frames will
appear on faces that the camera focuses on.

to 9 green frames will appear on the areas the camera focuses on when
the shutter button is pressed halfway.
• If a face is not detected when Servo AF (p. 97) is set to [On], the AF frame
will appear in the center of the screen when you press the shutter button
halfway.
• Examples of faces that cannot be detected:
- Subjects that are far away or extremely close
- Subjects that are dark or light

the AF frame will not appear.
