Manual focus is not just a matter of emotion. Although the autofocus function of the current camera is already very powerful, manual focus still plays an irreplaceable role in some specific environments and shooting themes.

Shooting these themes, using manual focus may have a better effect:

1. In a solid color environment, such as when shooting a wall or shooting a white snow scene, the camera's autofocus function may be less sensitive, because a large area of solid color objects will make its focus slow and inaccurate. it may take many attempts to get the ideal depth of field.

Then when shooting in this environment, manual focus is more convenient, by turning the focus ring, through the screen to view, we can lock a more accurate focus position.

two。 When shooting ultra-close and ultra-long-range objects, autofocus may also be less intelligent and slow to focus, which is more obvious when shooting at ultra-close range.

Inaccurate focus can also occur when shooting the starry sky, the moon, or distant landscape. in order to ensure success rate and accuracy, if there is plenty of time, try to use manual focus and enlarge the screen to ensure more accurate focus.

3. When shooting in a low-light environment, the camera's autofocus is almost completely ineffective because it cannot find objects in the scene, which can be avoided by using manual focusing, and we can still roughly see the focus position through the screen.

Of course, if the environment is particularly dark, it is more efficient to use a light source to illuminate the subject and then focus.

4. When shooting small objects in scattered small objects, such as a flower in the flowers, autofocus is difficult to accurately lock the object we want to highlight, and the camera tends to lock the element closer to us. At this time, the role of manual focus is reflected, instead of constantly trying to use autofocus, it is better to focus manually in one step.

5. There is a blocking object in the picture when there is an occlusion between the camera and the subject, if there is no advance focus, then when the shutter is pressed half-way, the camera will often lock the block, wasting time and shooting opportunities.

When the environment is complicated and obstructions often occur during shooting, manual focusing can avoid unexpected situations and keep the depth of field at an ideal level.
