If the correct focus cannot be obtained
When the subject you want to focus on is not in the center of the frame and
you cannot position the AF target mark on it, you can focus the camera on
another point at roughly the same distance (focus lock) and take the
picture as explained below.
1
Position the AF target mark on
the subject you want to focus on.
• When shooting a hard-to-focus or fast-
moving subject, focus the camera on an
object about the same distance away as
the subject.
2
Press the shutter button halfway
until the green lamp lights.
• The green lamp lights when the focus
and exposure are locked.
• When the green lamp blinks, the focus
and exposure are not locked. Release your finger from the shutter button,
re-position the AF target mark on the subject and press the shutter button
halfway again.
3
Keeping the shutter button
pressed halfway, recompose
your shot.
