Troubleshooting Guide
Set the lens focus mode switch to <AF> (p.39).
To prevent camera shake, press the shutter button gently (p.43, 44).
If the lens has an Image Stabilizer, set the IS switch to <1> (p.42).
In low light, the shutter speed may become slow. Use a faster shutter
speed (p.162), set a higher ISO speed (p.124), use flash (p.188), or
use a tripod.
Depending on the attached lens, the number of usable AF points and
patterns will differ. The lenses are categorized into eight groups from A
to H. Check which group your lens belongs to. Using a lens in Groups
F to H will have fewer usable AF points (p.79).
When you press the <S> button, the blinking AF points are those that
are not cross-type AF points and are only horizontal line-sensitive. The
AF points that light up are cross-type AF points (p.74).
The AF point at the registered area is blinking (p.324).
Set the AF mode to One-Shot AF. Focus lock is not possible in the AI
Servo AF and AI Focus AF modes (p.70).
Depending on the shutter speed, aperture, subject conditions,
brightness, etc., the continuous shooting speed may become slower.
The image is out of focus.
There are fewer AF points.
The AF point is blinking.
I cannot lock the focus and recompose the shot.
The continuous shooting speed is slow.
