Notes on using wide- or super wide-angle AF NIKKOR lenses

In the following situations, autofocus may not perform as expected when shooting with wide- or super
wide-angle AF NIKKOR lenses.
C A person standing in front of
a distant background
D A field filled with flowers
1. When the main subject in the focus
brackets is relatively small
When a person standing in front of a distant
background is positioned within the focus
brackets, as shown in Fig. C, the background
may be in focus, while the subject is out of
focus.
2. When the main subject is a finely
patterned subject or scene
When the subject is finely patterned or of low
contrast, such as a field filled with flowers, as
shown in Fig. D, focus may be difficult to
acquire using autofocus.
Responses to these types of situations
(1) Focus on a different subject located at the same
distance from the camera, apply focus lock,
recompose, and shoot.
(2) Set the camera's focus mode to manual focus
and focus manually on the subject.
Refer to "Getting Good Results with Autofocus" in
the camera's User's Manual.
