[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 576448, member: 6277"] The mountain area looked like it was overcast or late or early day. The camera needs contrast to focus properly. Never use the fully Auto mode since it gives you no options at all. AT least start with the Program mode and you can pick the ISO. Good place to start and learn and then move on to other modes. Get away from the fully Auto Focus setting. You will be much better using the [B]Single-point AF[/B] [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif][COLOR=#4d4d4d]Look it up in your camera manual. It is a rare day that I move away from Single-point AF Not to b e confused with AF-C and AF-S. AF-S for now until you get the hang of it. [/COLOR][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
