Intelligent AF keeps you focused in a variety of situations
Target finding AF automatically focuses on the subject you desire. When photographing people, face-detection technology helps maintain accurate focus to ensure sharp images. For other types of subjects, subject-prediction technology automatically judges what is the main subject, and sets the AF area to match its size and position to achieve sharp focus. With an AF system this intelligent, you'll never miss capturing that magical moment.
