Basic Photography and Playback: Auto Mode Step 3 Focus and Shoot B During Recording While pictures are being recorded, the number of exposures remaining will blink. Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover while pictures are being recorded. Cutting power or removing the memory card in these circumstances could result in loss of data or in damage to the camera or card. B Autofocus Autofocus may not perform as expected in the following situations. In some rare cases, the subject may not be in focus despite the fact that the active focus area and the focus indicator glow green: • Subject is very dark • Objects of sharply differing brightness are included in the scene (e.g. the sun is behind the subject and is in deep shadow) • No contrast between the subject and surroundings (e.g. when the subject is standing in front of a white wall, wearing a white shirt) • Several objects are at different distances from the camera (e.g. the subject is inside a cage) • Subject is moving rapidly In the situations noted above, try pressing the shutter-release button halfway to refocus several times, or focus on another subject and use focus lock (A 101). When using focus lock, be sure that the distance between the camera and the subject with which focus was locked is the same as that for the actual subject. C Blink Warning If the blink warning screen is displayed shortly after a picture is taken in face priority mode, the eyes of human subjects may have been closed when the picture was taken. Check the picture and decide whether or not another picture should be taken. Did someone blink? • The portrait subject, whose eyes may have been closed when the picture was taken, will be framed by a yellow border in the blink warning screen. Exit • Press the k button, or press the shutter-release button, to return to shooting mode. See "Blink Warning" (A 124) or "Operating the Blink Warning Screen" (A 125) for more information. D Flash If the subject is poorly lit, the flash may fire by pressing the shutter-release button all the way down (A 28). 25
