Autofocus

The camera may be unable to focus if:

- The subject contains lines parallel to the long edge of the frame
- The subject lacks contrast
- The subject in the focus point contains areas of sharply contrasting

brightness

- The focus point includes night-time spot lighting or a neon sign or other

light source that changes in brightness

- Flicker or banding appears under fluorescent, mercury-vapor, sodium-

vapor, or similar lighting

- A cross (star) filter or other special filter is used
- The subject appears smaller than the focus point
- The subject is dominated by regular geometric patterns (e.g., blinds or a

row of windows in a skyscraper)

- The subject is moving

The monitor may brighten or darken while the camera focuses.

The focus point may sometimes be displayed in green when the camera is
unable to focus.

Focus position memory

To save the focus position even when the camera is turned off, set [Save
focus position
] in the setup menu to [On]. However, some time may be
required until the camera can be used after turning it on (depending on
zoom operation and changes in temperature, the focus position after turning
on the camera may change from the position before the camera was turned
off).

AF-area mode

Choose how the camera selects the focus point for autofocus.

In modes other than [Auto-area AF], [Auto-area AF (people)], and
[Auto-area AF (animals)], the focus point can be positioned using
the multi selector (
