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. 44)

When subjects are moving fast
