HOW TO USE AUTOFOCUS

the centre of the composition and press
the shutter button “half-way”.
 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.)
 If autofocus cannot set correctly, the focusing point will blink. (At the same
time, the auto focus lamp will blink in red)
 The focusing distance is from 22.6cm to infinity.
Although your camera is equipped with highly precise AF system, in
some cases autofocus cannot set correctly.
 Low-contrast subjects, such as blue sky or a blank wall, etc. or when the
color of the subject is same as background
 The subject is located in a very low light environment
 Overlapping near and far objects, such as an animal behind a fence
 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.
