Set the lens’s focus mode switch to <AF> (p.47).

Press the shutter button gently to prevent camera shake (p.49-50).

If the lens has an Image Stabilizer, set the IS switch to <1>.

In low light, the shutter speed may become slow. Use a faster shutter
speed (p.192), set a higher ISO speed (p.148), use flash (p.228, 233),
or use a tripod.

Depending on the attached lens, the number of usable AF points and
patterns varies. The lenses are categorized into eight groups from A to
H. Check which group your lens belongs to. Using a lens in Groups E
to H will have fewer usable AF points (p.130-131).

Regarding lighting up or blinking of the AF points when you press the
<S> button, see page 123.

The AF points light up in red only when focus is achieved in low-light
conditions.

In Creative Zone modes, you can set whether to have the AF points
light up in red when focus is achieved (p.424).
