Shooting basics

If correct focus cannot be obtained

Subjects that are difficult to focus on

Under certain types of conditions, the auto focus may not work properly. If this

happens, focus on an object with high contrast at the same distance as the

intended subject (focus lock), recompose your shot and then take the picture.

If the subject has no vertical lines, hold the camera vertically and focus the

camera using the focus lock function by pressing the shutter button halfway,

then return the camera to the horizontal position while keeping the button

pressed halfway and take the picture.

TIPS

The green lamp blinks.

T You are too close to the subject. Take the picture at least 50 cm/1.6 ft,

away from the subject. When the distance from the camera to the

subject is less than 50 cm/1.6 ft, select the macro mode.

~ “Macro mode shooting” (P. 53)
