Manual Focus - Canon CR-N300 Settings Manual

Shooting conditions that are difficult to focus with autofocus
Strong light is
reflected.
– When the iris is narrowed down
– When the shutter speed is in the range of [Slow (sec.)]
– When subjects are at both far and near sides
• The following are the main examples of failure to detect faces:
– When the face is extremely small, large, dark, or bright relative to the entire screen
– When the face is facing sideways or diagonally, or the face is upside down
– When part of the face is hidden
• May detect a subject other than a person as a face by mistake. If so, set [Face Detection AF] to [Off].
• May accidentally track another subject with similar characteristics. In this case, select the subject again.
• The conditions under which face detection AF or tracking cannot be used are as follows:
– Shutter speed slower than 1/30 of a second (frame frequency at 59.94/29.97 Hz), 1/25 of a second (at 50.00/
25.00 Hz), or 1/24 of a second (at 23.98 Hz).
– When [PTZ/IS] > [Digital Zoom] is set to [400x] and the image size is magnified by more than 80 times
– [PTZ/IS] > [Digital Zoom] > [Digital Tele-Converter] to [6.0x]

Manual Focus

Manual Focus makes the focus position move manually.
Note
• If a zoom operation is performed after focusing, the focus may shift.
• If the camera is left turned on, the focus may shift due to increase of the temperature of the lens and inside the camera body. Check the
focus again before shooting.
