If you shoot a still image of a subject that is difficult to focus on
• The shortest shooting distance is approximately 8 cm (3 1/4 inches) (W), 80 cm (31 1/2 inches) (T) (from
the lens). Shoot in the Close focus mode when you shoot a subject closer than the shooting distance.
• When the camera cannot focus on the subject automatically, the AE/AF lock indicator changes to flash
slowly and the beep does not sound. Recompose the shot and focus again.
Focusing may be difficult in the following situations:
– It is dark and the subject is distant.
– The contrast between the subject and the background is poor.
– The subject is seen through glass.
– The subject is moving quickly.
– There is reflective light or shiny surfaces.
– The subject is backlit or there is a flashing light.
