shooting through a window or a net. Try
shooting using the focus lock (p.68), or
adjust the focus manually (Manual
Focus) (p.105).

the focus on the desired subject (focus
lock), and then move the camera to
recompose.

working properly, normal condition is restored and you can continue
using the camera.
