Specifically, options ‘such as “face up,” “bust up” and “whole body”’ would ‘determine the size of the subject image as the basis for zoom control based on the selected composition.’ There’s also mention of touch-based tracking, which would enable photographers to tap on a subject within the composition on the touchscreen display and have the camera keep focus on that particular subject. As explained in the patent literature, this technology could work with both digital and optical zoom to keep subjects within the frame with minimal input from the camera operator.Īdditional illustrations showing how the auto-zoom feature would detect where a subject is within the frame and adjust the zoom based on the parameters set by the camera operator.Ĭanon says the camera operator would be able to choose from various composition options in the camera’s menu to control how much of the subject is kept within the frame. Patent number 2021020239, published May 23, 2022, highlights the underlying technology and interface that would enable Canon to effectively have ‘auto-zoom’ technology in its cameras.
