    The document provides tips for focusing a camera in different situations and conditions. It suggests that focusing can be difficult when there is low contrast between the subject and background, too bright light behind the subject, shiny or reflective subjects, or horizontal patterns. It recommends using focus lock by half-pressing the shutter button to focus, then recomposing before fully pressing to take the photo. For low-light conditions, it advises turning on the flash and adjusting ISO sensitivity settings. When subjects are moving rapidly, it suggests using continuous shooting mode to take multiple photos in quick succession, ideally with fast memory cards.

    Keeping the subject in focus


    Focusing on the subject may be difficult in the following conditions:
    • When the contrast between the subject and background is low. For example, the subject
    is wearing clothing that is similar in colour to the background.
    • The light 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 centre of the frame.

    Using the focus lock


    Half-press the Shutter button to focus. When the subject is focused, you can change the
    composition. When you are ready, press the Shutter button to take the photo.

    When taking photos in low-light conditions


    • Turn the flash on to take photos in low-light conditions. (p. 37)
    • Set ISO sensitivity options. (p. 38)

    When subjects are moving rapidly


    Use the continuous shooting option to take photos of moving subjects. (p. 26)

    To take several photos continuously, use memory cards with faster write speeds
    (micro SDHC Class10 or higher).
