BEFORE TAKING PICTURES
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.
kConditions that may cause incorrect focus
The following examples are some of the situations where the autofocus
function may not work.
iSubjects with low contrast, very
bright subjects at the center of the
image or dark subjects or locations
Use the focus-lock function (page29)
to lock the focus on an object with
contrast at the same distance as the
desired subject.
iSubjects 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.
