FOCUS SIGNALS
SPECIAL FOCUSING SITUATIONS
This digital camera has a quick, accurate autofocusing system. The focus signal in the lower right
corner of the LCD monitor indicates the focus status. The shutter can be released regardless if the
camera can focus on the subject or not.
The camera may not be able to focus in certain situations. In these situations the focus-lock func-
tion (p. 26) 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.
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.
Focus confirmed - the LCD monitor focus signal is
white. Focus is locked.
