[QUOTE="Obir, post: 51361, member: 4928"] The camera needs something of contrast to be able to lock focus on. Sometimes there's just not enough light and you have no choice but to focus manually. In this case, I'd suggest using "live view". Like tracksoft mentioned, make sure the AF-Assist light is on and working (it only works on AF-S and AF-A modes I believe). It works very well as long as you're fairly close to your subject It is a great community. I've learned so much myself:) [/QUOTE]
