6 The autofocus system Features As you press the shutter button, your camera sends sound waves - within 10 thousandths of a second - to the central part of the scene (approximate area circled in white, see illustration). The sound waves are used to measure the distance to the person or object (in the central part of the scene) that is closest to the camera. A built-in computer then uses this measurement to provide the correct lens setting, so be sure that: • The sound waves must have a clear path to your subject. If an object (candlestick, centerpiece, etc.1 prevents the sound waves from reaching your subject, the lens will focus on that object, and your subject will not be clear and in focus. • When photographing more than one person, place everyone the same distance from the camera. • When taking a picture through glass, turn off the autofocus system.
