Preventing your subject from being out of focus
It may be difficult to get your subject in focus when:
-
there is little contrast between the subject and background (for example, when
your subject is wearing clothing that is similar in color to the background)
-
the light source behind the subject is too bright
-
the subject is shiny or reflective
-
the subject includes horizontal patterns, such as blinds
-
the subject is not positioned in the center of the frame
Using the focus lock
Half-press [

reposition the frame to change the composition. When you are
ready, press [
Shutter
] to capture your photo.
