Touch & Track; Video Snapshot - Canon VIXIA HF M301 Instruction Manual

Touch & Track
When recording people, face detection (0 67) will track the main sub-
ject and keep it always in focus. But also when recording other moving
subjects such as your pet, a moving vehicle or people not facing the
camera directly, you can use Touch & Track to keep your subject in
focus at all times.
Operating modes:
1 Make sure face detection is activated (0 67).
2 Point the camcorder at a moving subject and touch the subject on
the touch screen.
• A white double frame will appear around the subject and track it as it
moves.
• Touch [Cancel z] to remove the frame and cancel the tracking.
NOTES
• In certain cases, Touch & Track may not be able to track the subject.
Typical examples include:
- Subjects extremely small or large in relation to the overall picture.
- Subjects too similar to the background.
- Subjects lacking sufficient contrast.
- Fast moving subjects.
- When shooting indoors with insufficient lighting.
