Notes About Subject Tracking
• Digital zoom is not available.
• The sound of the lens focus motor can be heard when the subject tracking function is working.
• Adjust zoom position and apply shooting settings (
A
38) before registering the subject. If these
settings are adjusted after the subject has been registered, subject registration will be canceled.
• It may be impossible to register the desired subject, or the camera may be unable to track the
registered subject or may begin tracking a different subject, if the subject is moving rapidly, if
there is a significant amount of camera shake, or if the camera detects a similar subject. The
camera’s ability to accurately track the registered subject is also dependent upon the size and
brightness of the subject.
• In some rare cases, subjects not suitable for autofocus (
A
77) may be out of focus despite the fact
that the focus area glows green. In this situation, try focus lock shooting (
A
78) by focusing on
another subject that is the same distance from the camera.
• Some settings cannot be used with other functions (
A
71).
C
Touch Shooting Setting
Subject registration with subject tracking will be canceled when the camera is turned off.
