this automatic routine, the focus bracket will turn green. If the 
automatic focus and exposure routine is not successful, the 
bracket will turn red. If this occurs, simply release the shutter and 
repeat this step until the bracket turns green. In some situations, 
lighting and contrast may be insufficient for the camera to

If this occurs, try better lighting.

photo. If you take the photo when the bracket is red, the focus 
and exposure may not be correct.
If the shake warning icon   appears, hold the camera steadily, with your arms at your side or use a tripod to 
stabilize the camera to reduce the risk of blurred photos.
