Changing the Autofocus Mode
Shooting conditions which can make focusing difficult:
®
®Subjects in low light.
®Stripes and other patterns where there is contrast only in the horizontal direction.
®Under a light source whose brightness, color, or pattern keeps changing.
®Night scenes or points of light.
®Under fluorescent lighting or when the image flickers.
®Extremely small subjects.
®Subjects at the edge of the picture.
®Subjects strongly reflecting light.
®The AF point covers both a near and faraway subject (such as an animal in a cage).
®Subjects which keep moving within the AF point and cannot keep still due to camera shake or subject blur.
®A subject approaching or moving away from the camera.
®Autofocusing while the subject is way out of focus.
®Soft focus effect is applied with a soft focus lens.
®A special effects filter is used.
