FOCUS SIGNALS

This digital camera has a quick, accurate autofocusing system. The focus signal in the lower right corner of the LCD monitor and the indicator lamp next to the viewfinder indicate the focus status. The shutter can be released regardless if the camera can focus on the subject or not.

Focus confirmed - the LCD monitor focus signal is white, the viewfinder indicator lamp is green and steady. Focus is locked.

Cannot focus - the LCD monitor focus signal is red and the viewfinder indicator lamp is green and blinks rapidly.
