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
Use the focus lock
Half-press [
Shutter
] to focus. When the subject is in focus,
you can reposition the frame to change the composition.
When you are ready, press [
Shutter
] to take your photo.
