• The camera can focus at distances as close as 3 cm

(1.2 in.) at the wide-angle zoom position at which F

and the zoom indicator glow green (the zoom

indicator is before G). The closest distance at which

the camera can focus varies depending upon zoom

position.

• As pictures are easily affected by camera shake, check

the Vibration reduction (A 109) setting and hold the camera steadily.

settings can be adjusted while the focus area is locked.

picture.

• Focus is locked when the shutter-release button is

pressed halfway, and a picture is taken when the

shutter-release button is pressed the rest of the way

down.

blinks red. Change the composition and press the shutter-release button halfway

again.
