face may not be detected properly.

Autofocus mode

Set Autofocus mode (

A 52) used for subject tracking mode (the default setting is

release button is pressed halfway to lock the focus. The sound of lens drive 
movement can be heard.
Changes made to the autofocus mode setting in this mode will not be applied to 
the autofocus mode setting in A (auto) mode. The autofocus mode setting applied 
in subject tracking mode is stored in the camera’s memory even after the camera is 
turned off.

Face priority tracking

When On is selected (default setting), if the camera detects a subject’s face, that 
subject is automatically registered as the subject to be tracked, and subject tracking 
begins tracking that subject.
