One way to handle these situations is to focus on some other object the same distance
as the subject that you want to take, engage the focus lock (see next section), then
turn the camera back to the desired scene and take the shot. Another solution is to fix
the focus at 8 feet (close) or at
∞
(distant) using the “quick focus” feature (p.81).
If you’re shooting a subject with no vertical lines (as in diagram 3), try rotating the
camera 90 degrees, locking the focus, and then rotating the camera back.
