85 You can easily fine-tune AI Servo AF to suit a particular subject or scene just by selecting between case 1 to case 6. This feature is called the “AF Configuration Tool.” 1Select the [21] tab. 2Select a case. Turn the < 5> dial to select a case icon, then press . X The selected case will be set. The selected case is indicated in blue. As explained on pages 90 to 92, case 1 to 6 are six setting combinations of subject-tracking sensitivity, acceleration/deceleration tracking, and AF point auto...

86 3 Selecting AI Servo AF Characteristics (For a Subject) N Standard setting suited for any moving subject. Works with many subjects and scenes. Select [Case 2] to [Case 6 ] in the following cases: when obstacles enter AF points, when the subject tends to stray from AF points, when you want to focus a subject that suddenly appears, or when the subject moves dramatically up, down, left, or right. The camera will try to continue focusing the subject even if an obstacle enters the AF points or if...

87 3 Selecting AI Servo AF Characteristics (For a Subject) N Once an AF point starts tracking the subject, this setting enables the camera to focus consecutive subjects at different distances. If a new subject appears in front of the target su bject, the camera will start focusing the new subject. Also effective when you want to always focus on the closest subject. Geared for tracking moving subjects whose speed can change dramatically and suddenly. Effective for subjects having sudden...

88 3 Selecting AI Servo AF Characteristics (For a Subject) N Even if the target subject moves dramatically up, down, left, or right, the AF point will switch automatically to focus-track the subject. Effective for shooting subjects that move dramatically up, down, left, or right. This setting takes effect when the following AF area selection modes are set: AF point expansion (Manual selection ), AF point expansion (Manual selection, surrounding points), Zone AF (Manual selection), 61-point...

89 3 Selecting AI Servo AF Characteristics (For a Subject) N Geared for tracking moving subjects whose speed can change dramatically and suddenly. Also, if the target subject moves dramatically up, down, left or right and it is difficult to focus, the AF point switches automatically to track the subject. This setting takes effect when the following AF area selection modes are set: AF point expansion (Manual selection ), AF point expansion (Manual selection, surrounding points), Zone AF...

90 3 Selecting AI Servo AF Characteristics (For a Subject) N Tracking sensitivity Sets the subject-tracking sensitivity during AI Servo AF when an obstacle enters the AF points or when the AF points stray from the subject. [0] Standard setting suited for most moving subjects. [Locked on: -2 / Locked on: -1 ] The camera will try to continue focusing the subject even if an obstacle enters the AF points or if the subject strays from the AF points. The -2 setting makes the camera track the target...
