DUH! That is not nice.

I believe you have to wait for the solid green light to be sure it's focused.

The green circle always lights up at the same time as the red view finder LEDs light up. So, a rude post without any reason or sense.

It's not a frivolous reply.  It's sometimes deceptive, and you might have to check the manual.

With some of these cameras they can appear to focus and you get a flicker. If in doubt you have to check for the focus confirmation light, and it's easy to miss the fact that you don't have a focus lock.

If sure you've done that and are certain, then that's a different matter.
