Step 3 Focus and Shoot

Basic Photography and Playback: Auto Mode

C During Recording

While the indicator of the number of exposures remaining is blinking on the monitor, pictures are

being recorded. Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover. Removing the memory

card or battery while pictures are being recorded could result in loss of data or in damage to the

recorded data, camera or card.

C Autofocus

Autofocus may not perform as expected in the following situations. In some rare cases, the subject

may not be in focus despite the fact that the focus area or the focus indicator glows green:

• Subject is very dark

• Objects of sharply differing brightness are included in the scene (e.g. the sun is behind the subject

and is in deep shadow)

• No contrast between the subject and surroundings (e.g. when the subject is standing in front of a

white wall, wearing a white shirt)

• Several objects are at different distances from the camera (e.g. the subject is inside a cage)

• Subject is moving rapidly

In the situations noted above, try pressing the shutter-release button halfway to refocus several

times, or focus on another subject and use focus lock (A 104). When using focus lock, be sure that

the distance between the camera and the subject with which focus was locked is the same as that

for the actual subject.

C Blink Warning

If the Did someone blink? screen is displayed shortly after the picture is taken in the Face Priority,

someone’s eyes may have been closed during the shot (A 127).

• Human subjects with eyes closed will be framed by a yellow border in Did someone blink?

screen.

• To return to the shooting mode, press k or press the shutter-release button halfway (A 128).

D AF-assist Illuminator and Flash

If the subject is poorly lit, the AF-assist illuminator (A 124) may light by pressing the shutter-release

button halfway, or the flash (A 28) may fire by pressing the shutter-release button all the way down.
