1 Composing the scene
After zooming the lens and composing your
scene, focus on the subject with the autofo¬
cus frame In the center of the viewfinder.
* This camera uses multi-beam AF to focus
the lens on the subject. Even If the subject
is slightly off the AF frame, the subject will
easily be brought into focus.
* To focus on a particular spot in the AF
frame, select the AF spot mode.
* When the power is turned on, the multi-
beam AF mode is automatically set.
2 Checking the lamp indication
Depress the shutter release button halfway
down. When the subject is in focus, the green
lamp will light up. If the subject is closer than
0.56 meter (I.Sft), the green lamp will blink to
warn you. In this case, extend the camera-to-
subject distance until the green lamp is lit
continuously.
• When the red lamp lights up, it indicates
that the built-in flash will discharge. Ensure
that you are within the flash effective range
before shooting, (see page 13.)
