5 Press the Shutter button all the way down. A 10-second countdown appears on the Image Display. The Self-Timer light on the front of the camera blinks slowly for 7 seconds and then quickly for the final 3 seconds before the camera takes the picture. If you set Self-Timer to On - 2 shots, the Self-Timer light blinks for a few more seconds until the second picture is taken. Using the focus brackets The two brackets in the middle of the viewfinder or the Live View screen (see Using live view on page 28) show the focus region for the picture you are taking. When you press the Shutter button halfway down, the camera uses this focus region to measure and then lock the focus. The focus brackets turn green in the Live View screen and the AF/ viewfinder light turns on solid green when the image is in focus and the camera can lock the focus. However, the focus brackets turn red and the AF/ viewfinder light blinks green when the camera is unable to focus. If the focus brackets turn red and the viewfinder light blinks, release the Shutter button, re-frame the subject for your picture, and then press the Shutter button halfway down again. If the focus brackets continue to turn red and the viewfinder light continues to blink after several tries, the lighting may be too low, or there may not be enough contrast in the focus region. Try using Focus Lock. See Using focus lock on page 27. 26 hp photosmart 930 series user's manual
