Fujifilm has substantially improved the AF-C algorithm to boost the accuracy of the X-T2's ability to track moving subjects. You can
now fine tune how the camera reacts to the way the subject moves within the frame, how fast the subject moves and where in the
frame the camera prioritises focus. The five presets in the AF-C Custom Settings represent combinations of these three factors.

AF- C Custom Settings
The AF-C Custom Setting allows you to select one of five AF presets according to the subject's movements to obtain perfect focus
tracking. Based on how the subject moves, you can select a preset from, for example, Preset 2: Ignoring obstacles, Preset 3: For
subjects that accelerate / decelerate, Preset 4: For subjects that suddenly come into the frame or Preset 5: Subjects with erratic
movements to obtain optimum settings for accurate subject tracking. A combination of three factors: Tracking sensitivity, Speed
tracking sensitivity and Zone area switching, may be manually set and registered as Preset 6: Custom.

This is a standard setting for moving subjects
in general. It is used by default when there is no
specific AF-C Custom Setting selected. This is
closest to the AF-C setting on previous models.

For subjects that suddenly
come into the frame
This setting allows you to specify whether the camera should switch its focus to a different
subject or retain its focus to wait for the subject to reappear. This control is useful when the
object you are tracking disappears behind an obstacle, goes out of the frame or when a second
object at a substantially different distance from the subject comes into the frame, Selecting 0
makes the camera switch its focus immediately, while choosing 1-4 progressively lengthens the
time it will retain focus.

Tracking Sensitivity
Speed Tracking Sensitivity
This setting defines the camera's tracking characteristics based on changes to the subject's
speed. Selecting 0 (constant speed), the camera does not consider change of speed when
predicting subject movements. Choose 2 (variable speed) and the camera takes speed changes
into account when predicting subject movement, making it suitable for accelerating or
decelerating subjects.

Zone area Switching
This setting is available only in the Zone AF mode, and allows you to specify which part of
the selected focusing zone should be given focusing priority. Select CENTER to maintain
focus in the center of the frame, or FRONT to switch the focus to a subject at the front of
frame when the original subject moves out of shot. AUTO tracks the subject you first focused on.
