A FE LockN
If the subject is too far away and underexposure may result, the
icon will blink in the viewfinder. Move closer to the subject and perform
FE lock again. You can also increase the ISO speed and perform FE lock
again when using a digital camera.
If the target subject is too small in the viewfinder, the FE lock might not
be very effective.
