HP Photosmart R725 Digital Camera L2063A#BCA Manuel D’Utilisation

When you press the Shutter button halfway down, the
camera focuses from the closest distance, then
examines other focus regions, displaying those in focus
as green brackets. The sample image shows focus in
regions one, two, and five.
If the camera keeps focusing on something other than
your subject, set Auto Focus Area to Spot (see Auto
Focus Area under 

), then use Focus Lock (see 

).

When the camera cannot auto focus, the focus brackets turn red. This indicates the
picture may be out of focus because the subject is out of the focus range or the scene
has low contrast.

For the Normal Focus range
If the camera is set to Normal Focus (see 

) and cannot focus, it will still take the picture. Try releasing the Shutter

button, reframing, and then pressing the Shutter button halfway down again. If the focus
brackets are still red:
●

If the scene has low contrast, use Focus Lock (see 

) and aim at a point on the subject that has more colors or crisp edges.

●

If the subject is too close (less than 500 mm or 20 in), move farther away from the
subject or use the   Macro or 

 Auto Macro focus range (see 

For the Macro focus range
If the camera is set to   Macro and cannot focus, the camera will not take the picture.
Try one of the following:
●

Move within the   Macro range or set the camera to 

 Auto Macro or 

 Normal

Focus (see 

●

In low contrast scenes, use Focus Lock (see 

Use Focus Lock to focus on a subject that is not in the center of the picture, to capture
action shots more quickly by pre-focusing in the area where the action will occur, or to
focus in low light or low contrast situations.
1.

Frame the subject for your picture within the focus
brackets. In low light or low contrast situations,
frame a brighter or higher contrast object.

2.

Press the Shutter button halfway down.
