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
