Subjects that are difficult to focus on

The purpose of the camera's auto focus feature is to bring the subject into
focus automatically, but under certain conditions, the auto focus may not
function effectively. If this happens, focus on an object with high contrast at
the same distance as the intended subject (focus lock), recompose your
shot and then take the picture.
For details of the focus lock procedure, refer to g P.10.
