Problem
My photo is
blurry.
86
Possible cause
Your subject was too
close to the camera lens.
The subject wasn't
centered in the frame, or
the subject did not
provide enough contrast
for the camera to focus
properly.
The subject moved while
you took the photo.
You moved the camera
while you took the photo.
Solution
The camera's Auto Focus range is 30cm (11.8 in.) from
the front of the lens to infinity. For a clear, sharp image,
make sure your subject is within this range.
If you do not want your subject in the middle of the
photo, or if the subject lacks contrast, set the camera's
Auto Focus using a different subject. To set the Auto
Focus using a different subject, follow these steps:
1. Frame a subject that is the same distance from the
lens as your subject and press the shutter button
1/2 way down.
2. Keeping the shutter button pressed 1/2 way down,
frame your subject and then press the shutter
button all the way down.
For sharp focus, ask the subject to stay still.
Hold the camera steady as you press the shutter button,
or use a tripod.
