Hint
When the product cannot focus automatically, the focus indicator flashes and the beep does not sound. Either recompose the
shot or change the focus setting. In [Continuous AF] mode,
lights up and the beep indicating that the focus has been
achieved does not sound.
An icon indicating that data is being written is displayed after shooting. Do not remove the memory card while the icon is
displayed.
Note
When the subject is moving, you cannot lock the focus even if [Focus Mode] has been set to [Automatic AF].
