Using auto focus
The circle in the viewfinder and the two brackets in the middle
of the
Live View
screen show the focus region for the picture
on page 29.) When you press the
Shutter
button halfway down, the camera uses this focus region to
automatically measure and then lock the focus.
The
AF
viewfinder light turns on solid green and the focus
brackets in the
Live View
screen turn green when the image is
in focus and the camera can lock the focus. However, the
AF
viewfinder light blinks green and the focus brackets in
Live
View
turn red when the camera is unable to focus.
If the viewfinder light blinks and the focus brackets turn red,
release the
Shutter
button, re-frame the subject for your picture,
and then press the
Shutter
button halfway down again. If the
viewfinder light continues to blink and the focus brackets
continue to turn red after several tries, the lighting may be too
low, or there may not be enough contrast in the focus region.
Try using
Focus Lock
(see the next section).
NOTE
When set to
Macro
Exposure Mode
, the camera will
not take a picture if it cannot find focus.
