The camera may not be able to focus
in certain situations. If the autofocus
system cannot focus on a subject,
the indicator lamp blinks and the
focus frame will not turn red. In this
situation, focus-lock can be used to
focus on an object at the same dis-
tance as the main subject and then
the image can be recomposed on the
monitor (p. 22).
Two subjects at different
distances overlap in the
focus frame.
The subject is near a
very bright object or
area.
Special focusing situations
The subject in the focus
frame is low in contrast.
The subject is too dark.
