Taking Pictures (Smart Auto) What if... • What if white and gray frames appear when you point the camera toward a subject? When faces are detected, a white frame appears on the face of the main subject, while gray frames appear on other detected faces. The frames will follow the subjects within a certain range. If the main subject moves, however, the gray frames will disappear. • What if a blue frame appears when the shutter button is pressed halfway? A blue frame appears when a moving subject is detected; the focus and exposure will continuously adjust (Servo AF). • What if the indicator blinks orange and blinks on the screen?

Press the qr buttons to choose [Off]. • What if the image comes out dark even if the flash fired when shooting? The subject is too far away for the flash to reach.
