Shooting in Smart Auto Mode
On-Screen Frames
A variety of frames are displayed once the camera detects subjects you are
aiming the camera at.
• A white frame is displayed around the subject (or person's face)
determined by the camera to be the main subject, and gray frames are
displayed around other detected faces. Frames follow moving subjects
within a certain range to keep them in focus.
However, if the camera detects subject movement, only the white frame
will remain on the screen.
• When you are pressing the shutter button halfway and the camera detects
subject movement, a blue frame is displayed, and the focus and image
brightness are constantly adjusted (Servo AF).
Try shooting in G mode (p. 91) if no frames are displayed, if frames
•
are not displayed around desired subjects, or if frames are displayed
on the background or similar areas.
