During Recording
While pictures are being recorded, the number of exposures remaining will blink.
Do not open the
battery-chamber/memory card slot cover
while pictures are being recorded. Cutting power or
removing the memory card in these circumstances could result in loss of data or in damage to the
camera or card.
B
Autofocus
Autofocus may not perform as expected in the following situations. In some rare cases, the subject
may not be in focus despite the fact that the focus area or the focus indicator glows green.
•
Subject is very dark
•
Objects of sharply differing brightness are included in the frame (e.g. the sun behind the subject
makes that subject appear very dark)
•
No contrast between the subject and surroundings (e.g. a portrait subject, wearing a white shirt, is
standing in front a white wall)
•
Several objects are at different distances from the camera (e.g. the subject is inside a cage)
•
Subject is moving rapidly
In the situations noted above, try pressing the shutter-release button halfway to refocus several
times, or focus on another subject (
A
55). When focusing on another subject, be sure that the
alternate subject is at the same distance from the camera as the intended subject while the shutter-
release button is pressed halfway.
B
Note on Face Priority
See “Notes on Face Priority” (
A
34) for more information.
C
Touch Shutter
At the default setting, the shutter can be released by simply tapping a subject in the monitor
(
A
51) rather than by pressing the shutter-release button. The
Touch shutter
option can be
changed to the
R
Touch AF/AE
option, with which the camera locks focus and exposure without
releasing the shutter, when a subject is tapped (
A
53).
D
AF-assist Illuminator and Flash
If the subject is poorly lit, the AF-assist illuminator (
A
148) may light when the shutter-release
button is pressed halfway, or the flash (
A
62) may fire when the shutter-release button is pressed
all the way down.
