BEFORE TAKING PICTURES

Using the autofocus

The autofocus will work in almost all situations; however, there are
certain conditions that may cause the autofocus function to not work
properly. If the autofocus function is not working properly, set the focus
range to capture images (page 72).

k Conditions that may cause incorrect focus
The following examples are some of the situations where the autofocus
function may not work.

i Subjects with low contrast, very

bright subjects at the center of the
image or dark subjects or locations
Use the focus-lock function to lock the
focus on an object with contrast at the
same distance as the desired subject.

i Subjects without vertical lines

Use the focus-lock function to lock the
focus while framing the subject
vertically, then re-orient the camera to
compose a horizontally framed image.
