If the focus brackets turn red, the AF viewfinder light blinks,

and the Macro icon is blinking on the Image Display, either the camera is set to Macro focus but detects the focus is further away than the macro (close-up) range, or the camera is set to Normal focus but detects the focus is closer than the normal range. For more information on the focus settings and their respective distance ranges, see Using macro mode on

page 36.

NOTE When set to Macro focus, the camera will not take a picture if it cannot find focus. However, when set to Normal focus (the default), the camera will still take a picture if it cannot find focus.

Status screen

When Live View is turned on and you change the flash, quality, or mode settings, a status screen will appear briefly on the Image Display, showing current camera settings, battery level, and the number of pictures remaining.
