Subjects/environments which may
make focusing difficult:
• Fast-moving or extremely bright
objects, or objects with no color
contrast.
• Taking pictures through glass or near
objects emitting light. In dark, or with
significant jitter.
• When too close to object or when
taking pictures of both distant and
close objects together in the same

We recommend using the ‘Face

of people (P.73).
