SPECIAL FOCUSING SITUATIONS IN AF

Autofocus operation depends on general lighting, subject contrast and detail, and other technical factors. In rare situations where autofocus (and manual focus with Electronic Rangefinder)

is not possible, ? blinks telling you to focus manually with the clear matte field (page 48) or perform autofocus on another subject located at the same distance.

A. Very dark subject

Focus manually with clear matte field, or for Single Servo AF, focus on another brighter subject located at the same distance, then lock the focus and recom- pose (pages 70-71). To perform autofo- cus with Speedlight’s AF-assist illumina- tor, use a Nikon AF Speedlight (SB-50DX, SB-29, SB-28/28DX, SB-27, SB-26, SB- 25, SB-23, SB-22s, SB-22 or SB-20).

B. Low-contrast subject

Focus manually with clear matte field, or for Single Servo AF, focus on another subject at the same distance but with more contrast, then lock focus and recompose (pages 70-71).

C. Strongly backlit subject, bright subject with shiny surface such as silver or aluminum, or scene in which there is a pronounced difference in brightness.

Use Single Area AF mode and select subject’s focus area (page 38) or focus manually with clear matte field.
