offers continuous shooting ability from close-up to
infinity. However, correct focus may not be
obtainable in the situations listed below (in these
cases use manual focusing):
• When two subjects overlap in the same scene.
• When illumination is low. The low-contrast
warning
appears.
• When the subject has no contrast (difference in
brightness and darkness), such as a flat, one-
color wall, or a clear, blue sky. The low-contrast
warning
appears.
• When a dark object is barely visible in the
viewfinder. The low-contrast warning
appears.
• When the scene contains small patterns or
identical patterns that are regularly repeated.
• When the scene is affected by sunbeams or light
reflecting off the surface of a body of water.
• When shooting a scene with a high-contrast
background.
