A A Note on Wide- and Super Wide-Angle Lenses
Autofocus may not provide the desired results in situations like those shown below.
1 Objects in the background occupy more of the focus point than the main subject:
If the focus point contains both foreground and background
objects, the camera may focus on the background and the
subject may be out of focus.
Example: A far-off portrait
subject at some distance
from the background
2 The subject contains many fine details.
The camera may have difficulty focusing on subjects that lack
contrast or appear smaller than objects in the background.
Example: A field of flowers
In these cases, use manual focus, or use focus lock to focus on another subject at
the same distance and then recompose the photograph.
