Using the focws brackets

The two brackets in the middle of the Live View screen show the

focus region for the picture you ore taking. When you press the

Shuier button halfway down, the camera uses this focus region

to measure and then lock the focus using this region. This is

called Focus Lock.

The focus brackets turn green in the Live View screen and the

AF viewfinder light turns on solid green when the image is in

focus and the camera can lock the focus. However, the focus

brackets turn red and the AF viewfinder light blinks green when

the camera is unable to focus.

If the focus brackets turn red and the AF viewfinder light blinks,

release the Shutter button, re-frame the subject for your picture,

and then press the Shutter button halfway down again. It the

camera still cannot focus after several tries, the lighting may be

too low, or there may not be enough contrast in the focus

region. Try using Focus Lock to focus on an object about the

same distance away but in a higher-contrast region, then point

the camera at the object you were originally trying to

photograph.
