The AF correct mark
●
in the viewfinder/monitor is blinking,
or the picture is out of focus
Set the focus mode switch to AF (
➞ 28). In most cases, the camera focuses on the subject
automatically by half-pressing the shutter button. However, if the subject is difficult for the camera to
focus on, the
●
mark blinks in the viewfinder and monitor. In that case, try the following methods:
• Point the camera slightly away from the subject to shift the AF target mark in the viewfinder and
half-press the shutter button again, or
• Use manual focusing.
When fully-pressing the shutter button with one stroke, taking the picture takes precedence over
focusing even if the subject may not be completely focused. To completely focus the shot, half-press
the shutter button to confirm the AF correct mark and then fully-press the shutter button.
