The camera won’t focus.
Note:
Some subjects are not suitable for autofocus. In these situations, you will often get
better results using manual focus (see p. 49). Focus on something which is about
the same distance away, lock the focus, and then point the camera at your original,
hard-to-focus subject.
• The camera is on manual focus (p. 49).
• The finder unit lens needs adjusting
(p. 17).
• The lens is dirty (p. 65).
