It may be difficult to focus on the following types of subjects.
• Subjects with extremely low contrast to the surroundings
• Scenes with a mixture of near and far subjects
• Subjects with extremely bright objects at the center of the composition
• Subjects that are moving quickly
• Subjects through glass: Try to shoot as close to the glass as possible
to reduce the chances of light reflecting back off the glass.
