The focus signal in the lower right corner of the LCD monitor indicates the focus status. The shutter
can be released even if the camera cannot focus on the subject.
The camera may not be able to focus in certain situations. If the autofocus system cannot focus on
a subject, the focus signal will turn red. In this situation, focus-lock on an object at the same dis-
tance as the main subject and then recompose the image on the monitor to take the picture.
The subject in the
focus frame is low in
contrast.
The subject is too
dark.
Two subjects at differ-
ent distances overlap
in the focus frame.
The subject is near a
very bright object or
area.
When using the sports action digital subject program, the camera continually focuses when the
shutter-release button is pressed partway down; the focus frames turn red. Keep the subject within
the red focus frames. Focus lock cannot be used.
If the AF system cannot focus, focus lock can be used with object at the same distance as the main
subject or the camera can be focused manually in the Digital Subject Program or program (P) expo-
sure modes (p. 57).
