  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

Using 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 capture your photo.

•When you capture photos in low light

Turn on the flash. (p. 61)

•When subjects are moving rapidly

Use the Continuous or Motion Capture function. (p. 73)
