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

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.
