Taking Photographs

Situation

Time between focus and shooting is short and there are obstacles between autofocus target and camera (e.g., volleyball or swimming). Use single-point AF to prevent camera focusing on obstacles such as volleyball net or splashes, and set standby timer to 1 minute or longer for improved shutter response.

If the camera has trouble focusing when high frame ad- vance rates are selected in continuous release mode, try lowering the frame rate.
