press the shutter release button fully.
Alternatively, use manual focus. (p.109)

middle of the viewfinder. If the subject is
outside the focusing area, aim the camera
at the subject and lock the focus (press the
shutter release button halfway), then
compose a picture and press the shutter
release button fully.
