Before Use
Move the frame as needed (=
77). To compose shots with
subjects on the edge or in a corner without moving the frame, rst
aim the camera to bring the subject into an AF frame, and then
hold the shutter button halfway down. Keep the shutter button
halfway down as you recompose the shot, and then press the
shutter button all the way down (Focus Lock).
To magnify the position of the AF frame, follow steps 2 – 4 in
“Shooting in Manual Focus Mode” (=
80).
Note that Touch
Shutter is not available at this time.
To reduce the frame size, choose MENU (=
33) > [ 3] tab
> [AF Frame Size] > [Small].
Note that Servo AF (
=
78
) and
Continuous AF (
=
79
) are not available at this time.
+Tracking
After you aim the camera at the subject, a white frame is displayed
around the face of the main subject as determined by the camera. You
can also choose subjects yourself (=
77).
When the camera detects movement, frames will follow moving
subjects, within a certain range.
Frames turn green after you press the shutter button halfway and the
camera focuses.
When no faces are detected, pressing the shutter button halfway
displays green frames around other areas in focus.
Examples of faces that cannot be detected:
- Subjects that are distant or extremely close
- Subjects that are dark or light
- Faces in prole, at an angle, or partly hidden
The camera may misinterpret non-human subjects as faces.
An orange frame is displayed with [
] if the camera cannot focus
on subjects when you press the shutter button halfway.
Focusing is not possible on faces detected at the edge of the
screen (which are displayed with gray frames), even when you
press the shutter button halfway.
Focusing
Choosing the AF Method
Still Images
Movies
Choose a method of auto focusing (AF) for the subject and scene you are
shooting.
Press the [
] button, choose [ ] in
the menu, and choose the desired option
(=
32).
Focusing may take longer or be incorrect when subjects are dark
or lack contrast, in very bright conditions, or with some EF or
EF-S lenses. For lens details, visit the Canon website.
You can also congure this setting by accessing MENU (=
33)
> [
3] tab > [AF method].
1-point AF
The camera focuses using a single AF frame. Effective for reliable
focusing.
Frames turn green after you press the shutter button halfway and the
camera focuses.
