Al Servo AF
Use this mode when taking pictures of mov-
ing subjects. The lens focuses the subject
continuously
with the selected focusing
point while the shutter button is pressed half-
way. Al Servo's predictive focus function can
track subjects moving toward or away from
the camera.
Predictive focus function
Predictive focus detects the distance and
speed of the subject and then predicts
the sub-
ject position so that the subject will be sharply
focused the instant the exposure
occurs. Shut-
ter release has priority over AF operation in
creative zone modes, and AF has priority in
image zone modes.

way, the camera automatically
shifts to one of
the other focusing
points and

tracking the subject.
