Using the autofocus

The autofocus will work in almost all situations; however, there are certain conditions that may cause the autofocus function to not work properly. If the autofocus function is not working properly, set the focus range to capture images (page 60).

kConditions that may cause incorrect focus

The following examples are some of the situations where the autofocus function may not work.

i Subjects with low contrast, very bright subjects at the center of the image or dark subjects or locations Use the focus-lock function to lock the focus on an object with contrast at the same distance as the desired subject.

i Subjects without vertical lines Use the focus-lock function to lock the focus while framing the subject vertically, then re-orient the camera to compose a horizontally framed image.
