Focus Lock
Autofocus
Although the camera boasts a high-precision autofocus system, it may be unable to focus on the subjects listed
below. If the camera is unable to focus using autofocus, use focus lock (pg. 20) to focus on another subject at
the same distance and then recompose the photograph.
• Very shiny subjects such as mir-
rors or car bodies.
• Fast-moving subjects.
• Subjects photographed through a window or other refl ective object.
• Dark subjects and subjects that absorb rather than refl ect light, such as hair or fur.
• Insubstantial subjects, such as smoke or fl ame.
• Subjects that show little contrast with the background (for example, subjects in clothing that is the same color
as the background).
• Subjects positioned in front of or behind a high-contrast object that is also in the focus frame (for example, a
subject photographed against a backdrop of highly contrasting elements).
Auto Parallax
Although the camera boasts highly precise parallax control, auto parallax may not produce the desired results
with the subjects listed under “Autofocus” (above) or with subjects outside the recommended range (particu-
larly if the subject is close to the camera), repeating rectangular patterns such as venetian blinds or the windows
in an offi
ce building, or straight lines such as poles or wires. Use focus lock (pg. 20) or adjust parallax manually
(pg. 13).
