_1_ During Recording
While pictures are being recorded, the number of exposures remaining will blink. Do not open the
battery-chamber/memory cardslot cover wMe 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.
_!_ 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 (_ 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.
[] 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.
• 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,
• Press the _) button, or press the shutter release button, to return
to shooting mode.
See"BlinkWarning" (_ 124) or"Operating the Blink Warning Screen" (_ 125) for more
information,
[] Flash
If the subject is poorly lit, the flash may fire by pressing the shutter release button all the way down
(_ 2s).
