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.
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. E, 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. F, 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.
E A person standing in front of a
distant background
F A field filled with flowers
