Subjects that are difficult to focus on
The purpose of the camera’s auto focus feature is to bring the subject into
focus automatically, but under certain conditions, the auto focus may not
function effectively. If this happens, focus on an object with high contrast at
the same distance as the intended subject (focus lock), recompose your
shot and then take the picture.
For details of the focus lock procedure, refer to g P.63.
If the subject has no vertical lines, hold the camera vertically and focus the
camera using the focus lock function by pressing the shutter button halfway,
then return the camera to the horizontal position while keeping the button
pressed halfway and take the picture.
