Tip: Shutter-Release Button
The camera has a two-stage shutter-release button. To focus,
lightly press the shutter-release button until you feel resistance.
This is called “pressing the shutter-release button halfway.” Press
the shutter-release button the rest of the way down to shoot.
Tip: Focus
The autofocus/ash lamp and the focus frame show whether the
subject is in focus.

The camera may be unable to focus on the following:
• Objects that lack contrast, such as the sky, a wall that is only one
color, or the hood of a car
• Flat objects containing only horizontal lines
• Fast-moving objects
• Objects that are poorly lit
• Objects with bright reections or backlighting
• Flickering objects, such as uorescent lights
• Point light sources, such as light bulbs, spotlights, or LEDs
Note that one or more focus frames may be displayed in green
even if the camera is unable to focus on the above subjects;
check focus in the picture display before shooting. If the camera
is unable to focus, lock focus on another object at the same
distance from the camera as your subject, then recompose the
photograph and take the picture (page 25).
