Shooting basics

If correct focus cannot be obtained

When the subject cannot be focused on, you can focus the camera on

another point at roughly the same distance (focus lock) and take the picture

as explained below.

Using the Focus Lock function

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.

Press the shutter button halfway

until the green lamp lights.

• When the focus and exposure are locked,

the green lamp lights.

• The AF target mark moves to the focused

position.

• When the green lamp blinks, the focus

and exposure are not locked. Release your finger from the shutter

button, re-position your subject and press the shutter button halfway

again.

Keeping the shutter button

pressed halfway, recompose your

shot.
