FOCUS SIGNALS
SPECIAL FOCUSING SITUATIONS
The camera may not be able to focus in certain situations. If the autofocus system cannot
focus on a subject, the focus icon will turn red. In this situation the focus-lock function can
be used to focus on another object at the same distance as your main subject, and then
the image can be recomposed to take the picture.
