Remedy
The camera may have difficulty in
focusing on such subjects as: low
contrast subjects (a white wall, a
blue sky, etc.), dark subjects, finely-
patterned objects, rapidly-moving
objects. It is also difficult to get
proper focus when shooting through
a window or a net (p.76). Try
shooting using the focus lock, or
\ (Manual Focus) (p.120).
Locate the desired subject in the
focus frame (focusing area) in the
center of the display. If it is difficult to
do so, first lock the focus on the
desired subject (focus lock), and
then move the camera to
recompose.
Set to , (Auto) or b (Flash On)
(p.117).
The flash does not discharge in
these modes.
