Step 3 Focus and Shoot
1
Press the shutter-release button halfway.
Focus is locked when the shutter-release button is
pressed halfway (
A 8).
When a face is detected, it is framed by the double
border indicating the active focus area. When the subject
is in focus, the double border turns green.
The camera automatically selects the focus area (up to nine areas) suitable to the
shooting scene. When the subject is in focus, the focus area (
A 12, 50) that is selected
is displayed in green.
When digital zoom is used, the focus area is not displayed
and the camera focuses at the center of the frame. Once
focus has been acquired, the focus indicator will glow
green.
When the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the
shutter speed and aperture value are also displayed.
Focus and exposure remain locked while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.
When the camera detects subject movement or camera shake and increases shutter
speed, the shutter speed indicator will turn green (motion detection;
A 51).
If the focus area or the focus indicator blinks red when the shutter-release button is
pressed halfway, the camera is unable to focus. Modify the composition and press the
shutter-release button halfway again.

Press the shutter-release button the rest of
the way down.
The shutter is released and the picture will be recorded to
