_1_ Notes About Subject Tracking
• Digital zoom cannot be used,
• Adjust zoom position, flash mode, creative slider, and menu settings prior to registering the
subject. If any camera setting is changed after the subject has been registered, subject registration
will be canceled.
• The camera may not be able to register or track the subject, or a different subject may be tracked,
depending on shooting conditions such as if the subject is moving fast, if there is camera shake,
and if there are similar looking subjects in the frame. The ca mera's ability to accurately track the
registered subject is also dependent upon the size and brightness of the subject,
• When using autofocus and shooting subjects that are difficult to focus on (_ 29), the subject
may not be in focus even though the focus area glows green. If the subject is not in focus, change
AF area mode (_37) to Manual or Center in I_1 (auto) mode, and try focus lock shooting
