If the focus brackets turn red, the viewfinder light blinks, and the Macro icon blinks on the Image Display, either the

camera is set to the Macro focus range but detects the focus is farther away than the macro (close-up) range, or the camera is set to the Normal focus range but detects the focus is closer than the normal range. For more information, see Setting the focus range on page 30.

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