I'

With dark subjects, the camera'sAF-Assist Illuminator (page 50) is automatically activated to guide autofocus (except in 0 or ~Q).

Check points

Diopter adjustment (page 73) enables you to see more clearly through the viewfinder.

To take a picture of a subject outside the focus area, shift the focus area (page 48) or use focus lock (page 52).

In situations where autofocus may not work as expected, see page 27.

Built-in Speedlight

When the subject is dark or backlit and the shutter release button is lightly pressed, the built- in Speedlight automatically pops up in S' or Vari- Program (except in 0 or ~Q). See page 40 for details.

NOTE: Composing frame

This camera's viewfinder frame shows approximately 89% of the image actually exposed on the film frame. Therefore, the actual exposed frame is somewhat larger than the image you see through the viewfinder. Note that the edges of a negative film are partially cropped by most labs.
