Face priority
When the camera detects a human
face, it focuses on that face. See
“Using Face Detection” (

more information.
When framing a composition with
no human subjects or detected

selects one or more of the nine
focus areas containing the subject
closest to the camera when the
shutter-release button is pressed
halfway.
