Focusing

It is most important to achieve what we call “sharp” focusing when we take photos. Poor focusing can ruin your photos! Most cameras these days have auto focusing options, however if you do not take your time even with auto focusing your phots can still be slightly out of focus especially in low light.

The auto focus on most cameras works when you press the shutter button gently to half way, the camera lens will then focus on your subject.

In most cameras when you press and hold the shutter button half way the camera focuses and then locks the focus allowing you to adjust the view by moving your subject off-center as an example.

The best way to make sure you have complete sharp focus is to take your time when pressing the shutter button. Once you practice this a few times you will be shooting like a pro!
