It has the ability to intelligently decide between the two focusing systems on the camera. For example, when a bright, high-contrast subject is positioned in the center of the frame, Phase Detection AF works fast and accurately; and in dark scenes, Contrast AF is employed to work accurately. The F300EXR uses both Phase Detection AF and Contrast AF to offer fast auto focus speeds in all scenes.
