Changing Subject Tracking Mode Settings

While using s (subject tracking) mode (A 70), press the d button (A 8) and
then set the following options in the subject tracking menu.
• Use the rotary multi selector to choose and apply settings (A 9, 10).
• Press the d button to exit the menu.
Image mode
Choose the image mode (combination of image size and compression rate) at
which images are saved (A 44).
Changes made to the image mode setting apply to all shooting modes.
Autofocus mode
Set Autofocus mode (A 54) used for subject tracking mode (the default setting is
Full-time AF).
When using subject tracking mode while set to Full-time AF, the camera
continuously focuses once a subject is registered for subject tracking until the
shutter-release button is pressed halfway to lock the focus. The sound of lens drive
movement can be heard.
Changes made to the autofocus mode setting in this mode will not be applied to
the autofocus mode setting in A (auto) mode and continuous shooting mode. The
autofocus mode setting applied in subject tracking mode is saved in the camera's
memory even after the camera is turned off.
