Tips before you start taking pictures
2
If correct focus cannot be obtained
The camera automatically detects the focus target in the frame. The level
of contrast is one of the criteria it uses to detect the subject. The camera
may fail to determine subjects with lower contrast than the surroundings or
with an area of extremely strong contrast in the frame. If this happens, the
simplest solution is to use the focus lock.
1 Position the AF target mark on
the subject you want to focus on.
When shooting a hard-to-focus subject
or a fast-moving subject, point the
camera at an object about the same
distance away as the subject.
2 Press the shutter button halfway
until the green lamp lights.
When the focus and exposure are
locked, the green lamp lights.
When the green lamp blinks:
c You are too close to the subject take
the picture at least 50 cm/20". away
from the subject. When the distance from the camera to the subject is
less than 50 cm/20", select the macro mode. g“Taking close-up
pictures (macro/super macro mode)” (P.39)
d The focus and exposure are not locked. Release your finger from the
shutter button, re-position the AF target mark on the subject and press
the shutter button halfway again.
