Using Target Finding Af - Nikon COOLPIX P1000 Reference Manual

Using Target Finding AF

In A (auto) mode or creative mode, or when AF area mode (A140) in j, k, l, m,
or M mode is set to Target finding AF, the camera focuses in the manner described
below when you press the shutter-release button halfway.
The camera detects the main subject and focuses
on it. When the subject is in focus, the focus area is
displayed in green. If a human face is detected, the
camera automatically sets focus priority on it.
If no main subject is detected, the camera
automatically selects one or more of the nine focus
areas containing the subject closest to the camera.
When the subject is in focus, the focus areas that are
in focus are displayed in green.
