[Flexible zone AF] or [1-point AF] is recommended for [AF area].
If there is a chance of obstructions in the foreground such as trees and grass, we recommend setting [AF area] to [1-point AF].
By setting [Subject to detect] to [Animals], and setting [While area tracking Servo AF] to [Enable], makes framing easier and adjust composition.
If the focus is unstable due to the obstacles, it may be useful to set [Case Auto characteristics] to [Locked on: -1].
