HINTS FOR TAKING PICTURES
Taking great pictures in difficult surroundings is easier than you might think.
By keeping a few points in mind and choosing the correct settings, you can
create photos that you’ll be proud to display and share.
If images are blurred even when the autofocus is
used
Your camera employs an autofocus function. When you snap a picture using
the autofocus, the camera automatically adjusts the settings so that the
image will be in focus. If you are getting blurred images even when using the
autofocus, one or more of the following might be the reason.

k How the autofocus works
The autofocus is activated when the still images shooting button is gently
pressed halfway. Press the still images shooting button slightly, and the target
mark will appear on the LCD monitor to indicate that the autofocus has been
activated. Next, continue to gently press the still images shooting button all
the way to snap the picture. This two-step method is the way to ensure that
your photos are perfectly focused.

camera and the subject is changed, the subject may become out of
focus.
3 The focus setting is not set for the correct distance.
h If you shoot a close-up subject with the camera set to the normal focus
mode, or if you shoot a subject at normal distance with the camera set
to the super macro (close-up) mode, the image will not be in focus.
