The ILME-FX30 provides highly reliable and accurate autofocus performance with wide-area tracking across the entire frame. With real-time eye AF that follows the face and eyes (for people and animals), the subject stays in focus.

Stable AF and flexible focusing are available for a variety of shooting situations. AF Assist, Focus Map, and Breathing Compensation are great assist features.
