Tip: The Shutter-Release Button
The camera has a two-stage shutter-release button. To focus,
lightly press the shutter-release button until you feel resistance.
This is called “pressing the shutter-release button halfway.” Press
the shutter-release button the rest of the way down to shoot.
Tip: Focus
The autofocus/flash lamp and the focus frame show whether the
subject is in focus.
Autofocus/flash lamp
Camera has not yet focused. White Off
Subject in focus. Green On (green)
Camera unable to focus. Blinks (red) Blinks (green)
The camera may be unable to focus on the following:
• Objects that lack contrast, such as the sky, a wall that is only one
color, or the hood of a car
• Flat objects containing only horizontal lines
• Fast-moving objects
• Objects that are poorly lit
• Objects with bright reflections or backlighting
• Flickering objects, such as fluorescent lights
• Point light sources, such as light bulbs, spotlights, or LEDs
Note that one or more focus frames may be displayed in green if
the camera is unable to focus with the above subjects; check focus
in the picture display before shooting. If the camera is unable to
focus, lock focus on another object at the same distance from the
camera as your subject, then recompose the photograph and take
the picture (page 21).
