This is a photo of an airplane shot
against the sky with Large Zone AF.
The right zone is selected and you
follow the plane and take the shot as
the nose enters the zone. The AF point
is automatically selected on the right
side of the screen and the camera
focuses on the appropriate location.
You can select large zones from left, center, and right blocks. AF frames will
automatically be selected inside the selected zone.
Select from three zones: Left, Center, Right
The newest AF area selection mode on the EOS
7D Mark II is Large Zone AF. This new mode
features larger zones (left, center, or right in the
screen) than Zone AF, and automatically selects
AF points for focusing. Just as with Zone AF, the
camera determines the closest subject within the
zone and focuses. Even when shooting close-ups
of a subject, this feature is effective for keeping
the subject in a general area such as the left,
center, or right of the screen.
Blue color of focus point is for illustration.
