●Subjects not Suitable for Auto-focus
There are a few conditions when the camera’s auto-focus system may
not work well. At these times, use the “Auto-focus Lock” settings
(➜p.24) or the “Landscape Mode” setting (➜p.38). Here are some
examples:
/A bright light source within the picture such as the sun near the sub-
ject, a strong light reflection such as from water or from the wind-
shield of a car;
/A mirror or other strongly reflective surface near the center of the
picture;
/When the subject is only composed of vertical lines;
/When the subject is moving at high speed;
/When the background is much brighter than the subject.
In the following cases, the AF lamp blinks slowly to warn you that the
picture is out of focus. The focusing range is fixed at about 3m (9.8ft.)
–
∞.
/When the contrast of the subject is very low.
/When the subject is composed of a repeating
pattern.
