BEFORE TAKING PICTURES (for best results)
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 or the focus
area to capture images (see pages 61 and 88).
k Conditions that may cause incorrect focus
The following examples are some of the situations where the autofocus func-
tion 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 (see page 43)
to lock the focus on an object with contrast
at the same distance as the desired sub-
ject.
i Subjects without vertical lines
Use the focus-lock function to lock the
focus on the subject while holding the digi-
tal camera vertically.
The following examples are some of the situa-
tions where the autofocus function may work,
but not as desired.
i When both near and far objects are
present
Use the focus-lock function to lock the
focus on an object at the same distance as
the desired subject, then reposition the
camera to compose the picture.
