Subjects
that
may
require
special
focusing:
Using the autofocus, it is hard to focus on the following subjects.
In
such
cases, use the focus lock shooting feature (page 73) or manual focus
(page 75).
• A subject that is low in contrast, such as blue sky
or
a white wall.
•
Two
subjects at different distances overlapping in the
AF
area.
• A subject that is composed
of
repeating patterns, such as the facade
of
a
building.
• A subject that is very bright or glittering, such as the sun, the body
of
an
automobile, or the surface
of
water.
To
measure
the
exact
distance
to
the
subject
The
-e-
mark located on the top
of
the
camera shows the location
of
the image
sensor*. When you measure the exact
distance between the camera and the
subject, refer to the position
of
the
horizontal line.
* The image sensor
is
the part
of
the
camera that acts as the film.
Note
•
If
the subject is closer than the minimum shooting distance
of
the attached lens, the
focus cannot be confirmed. Make sure you put enough distance between the subject
and the camera.
