Autofocus function
Pressing the release button halfway activates the
autofocus function. Once the subject is in focus, a green
focus mark appears in the center of the LCD. When you
press the button the rest of the way, the shutter releases
and the picture is taken.
If the subject is out of focus when the button is pressed
halfway, a red focus mark appears on the LCD. Lift your
finger off the release button, and then slowly press the
button halfway again. Even if the red focus mark
appears, you can press the release button the rest of the
way to take the picture.
Pressing the release button fully instead of pausing
halfway will still take a picture, but the autofocus and
exposure compensation functions will not activate.
If CAMERA SOUND in the SETUP menu is set to
ANY ACTION or SHUTTER & PRINT, an operating
sound is heard when the release button is pressed
halfway or pressed fully.
Note
If slowly pressing the release button halfway does not
refocus the image, turn the camera off and then on again.
In addition, the autofocus function may not work
properly in the following situations:
• The subject lacks enough contrast.
• The subject includes an extremely bright object.
• The background is abnormally dark.
• The subject is positioned within 80 cm of the camera.
Exposure compensation function
When the mode dial is set to – and the bB
mark appears under the exposure compensation value
(EV) at the top right of the LCD, you can easily adjust
the exposure compensation by pressing the b or B
control button.
Adjusting the exposure compensation may not have any
effect for some EXPOSURE & FLASH settings.
For details, see “Setting the Shooting Conditions” on
page 38.
