Taking Photographs—Focus

Controlling How the Camera Focuses

The focus area

contains objects at

different distances

from the camera

An example would be a subject inside a

cage. Use focus lock ( 70) to focus on

another subject at the same distance, then

recompose the photo.

There is little or no

contrast between

the subject and

the background

An example would be a subject the same

color as the background. Use focus lock

( 70) to focus on another subject at the

same distance, then recompose the photo.

The focus area

contains areas of

sharply contrast-

ing brightness

An example would be a subject that is half

in the shade. Use manual focus ( 74).

The subject is

dominated by reg-

ular geometric

patterns

An example would be a row of windows

in a skyscraper. Use manual focus ( 74).

1 2 ... 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 ... 211 212
