# Shooting

#### The focus is not adjusted automatically.

- Is manual focus mode set? The focus will be adjusted automatically by setting auto focus mode.

- Do you perform shooting in an environment where focus may not be adjusted properly in auto focus mode? In some environment, auto focus function cannot adjust the focus correctly. In such cases, adjust the focus in manual focus mode.
