Preventing your subject from being out of focus
It may be difficult to get your subject in focus when:
-- there is little contrast between the subject and background
(for example, when your subject is wearing clothing that is similar in color to the background)
-- the light source behind the subject is too bright -- the subject is shiny or reflective
-- the subject includes horizontal patterns, such as blinds -- the subject is not positioned in the center of the frame
Use the focus lock
Half-press [Shutter] to focus. When the subject is in focus, you can reposition the frame to change the composition. When you are ready, press [Shutter] to take your photo.
•When you take photos in low light
Turn on the flash. (p. 39)
•When subjects are moving fast
Use the continuous or motion capture function. (p. 50)
