FOCUSING
Adjustment of autofocus and manual focus operation are

FOCUS MODE
Each time the button is pressed, AF mode (without
an icon) and MF mode (
icon) will alternate.
HOW TO USE AUTOFOCUS
Position the photographic subject within
the centre of the composition and press
the shutter button “half-way”.
x If autofocus is selected, the focusing point
will be illuminated in green. (At the same
time, the auto focus lamp will be
illuminated in green.)
x If autofocus cannot set correctly, the focusing point will blink. (At the same
time, the auto focus lamp will blink in red)
x The focusing distance is from 20cm to infinity.
Although your camera is equipped with highly precise AF system, in
some cases autofocus cannot set correctly.
x Low-contrast subjects, such as blue sky or a blank wall, etc. or when the
color of the subject is same as background
x The subject is located in a very low light environment
x Overlapping near and far objects, such as an animal behind a fence
x A subject, which moves at high speed
In such cases, please use one of the following focusing methods.
1. Use the Focus Lock function to focus on another subject, which has a
similar focusing distance as your subject.
