Step 3 Focus and Shoot
1
Press the shutter-release button halfway.
• When people's faces (front view) are recognized:
Camera will focus on the face surrounded by a double
border.
Once focus has been locked the double border will
glow green.
• When shooting non-human subjects or when no faces
are recognized:
Camera automatically selects the focus area (one of
nine) containing the subject closest to the camera.
When the subject is in focus, the active focus area glows
green.
• When digital zoom is in effect, the focus area is not displayed. When the camera focuses
on the subject in the center of the frame, the focus indicator ( A6) will glow green.
• Press the shutter-release button halfway to display the shutter speed and aperture.
• Focus and exposure remain locked while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.
• When the camera is unable to focus, while the shutter-release button is pressed
halfway, the double border in face priority blinks, or the focus area or focus indicator
blinks red. Change the composition and try again.
• See AF area mode ( A110) or “Shooting with Face Priority” (A112) for more
information about face priority.

Press the shutter-release button the rest of the
