The focus area varies depending on the shooting mode.

In A (auto) mode, or when AF area mode (

A52) in j, k, l, m or M mode 

is set to Target finding AF, the camera focuses in the manner described 
below when you press the shutter-release button halfway.
• The camera detects the main subject and 

focuses on it. When the subject is in focus, 
the focus area is displayed in green. If a 
human face is detected, the camera 
automatically sets focus priority on it.

• If no main subject is detected, the camera 

automatically selects one or more of the 9 
focus areas containing the subject closest to 
the camera. When the subject is in focus, the 
focus areas that are in focus are displayed in 
green.

• Depending on shooting conditions, the subject that the camera determines to be 

the main subject may vary.

• The main subject may not be detected when using certain White balance or 

Picture Control settings.

• The camera may not detect the main subject appropriately in the following 

situations:
- When the subject is very dark or bright
- When the main subject lacks clearly defined colors
- When the shot is framed so that the main subject is on the edge of the monitor
- When the main subject is composed of a repeating pattern
