Focus, Focus, Focus
Auto and manual focus can be blessings for every level of photographer.The focus on a camera is a wonderful thing that can help bring an extra edge to your photos. Auto focus is the setting in which the camera automatically focuses on a subject in a picture. The down side to this is that you might have to adjust where your viewfinder is shooting towards to get the camera to focus on what you want it to. Manual focus is the setting in which you must adjust the focus yourself. I would suggest manual focus only if you are having problems with auto focus. It takes master hands and sight to use manual focus. Many times pictures in manual focus come out blurry. In some cases this fuzziness may be what some photographer’s desire. They can then using photo shop to edit these photos and make them look different and more unique than sharper images that had been taken using auto focus. If a photographer wants a sharp image then they will most likely use auto focus, but if they want a fuzzy image or can’t get it just right with auto then they will use manual focus. Either way the availability to focus a camera is something that was not available when the first camera was invented and now today it is the basis of photography.
