If correct focus cannot be obtained (Focus lock)

Shooting basics

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

half-pressed and take the picture.

• When the camera is too close to the subject, the green lamp blinks. If

this happens, use the macro mode.

“Taking close-up pictures (Macro

mode)” ( p.40)

• While the green lamp is blinking, the subject cannot be brought into

focus. Remove your finger from the shutter button, re-position your

subject and half-press the shutter button again. “If correct focus

cannot be obtained (Focus lock)” ( p.33)
