Notes on Subject Tracking Mode
• Digital zoom is not available.
• Adjust zoom position, exposure, menu settings, and flash mode prior to registering the subject. If
any camera setting is changed after the subject has been registered, subject registration will be
canceled.
• It may be impossible to register the desired subject, or the camera may be unable to track the
registered subject or may begin tracking a different subject, if the subject is moving rapidly, if
there is a significant amount of camera shake, or if the camera detects a similar subject. The
camera's ability to accurately track the registered subject is also dependent upon the size and
brightness of the subject.
• In some rare cases, subjects with which autofocus may not perform as expected (A 27) may be
out of focus despite the fact that the focus area indicator glows green. Should this occur, switch to
A (auto) mode and set AF area mode (A 44) to Manual or Center, refocus on another subject
positioned at the same distance from the camera as the actual portrait subject, and use focus lock
(A 45).
