Step 4 Focus and Shoot

1

Press the shutter-release button halfway
(

A31).

When the camera detects the main subject, it focuses

on that subject. When the subject is in focus, the focus
area that is in focus lights in green (up to three areas).
See “Using Target Finding AF” (

A75) for more

information.

When you are using digital zoom, the camera focuses on

the subject in the center of the frame and the focus area is
not displayed. When the camera has focused, the focus
indicator (

A9) glows green.

While the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the

focus area or focus indicator may flash red. This indicates
that the camera is unable to focus. Modify the composition
and press the shutter-release button halfway again.

the way down (

The shutter is released and the image will be saved.
