What
if...
What if the color and brightness of the images do not turn out as
expected?
The scene icon (see Camera User Guide) that appears on the screen may not
match the actual scene. If this happens, try shooting in
P
mode (see Camera
User Guide).
What if white and gray frames appear when you point the camera toward
a subject?
A white frame appears on the face or subject that the camera detected as the
main subject, while gray frames appear on other detected faces. The frames will
follow the subjects within a certain range (see Camera User Guide).
If the subject moves, however, the gray frames will disappear, leaving only the
white frame.
What if a frame does not appear on the subject you want to shoot?
The subject may not be detected, and frames may appear on the background.
If this happens, try shooting in
P
mode (see Camera User Guide).
What if a blue frame appears when you press the shutter button halfway?
A blue frame appears when a moving subject is detected; the focus and
exposure will continuously adjust (Servo AF).
