The image is too soft or out of focus. What should I do?

• Try the following:
  • There may be dust or dirt on the lens. See Cleaning and Maintenance.
  • If you cleaned the lens, you may have accidentally changed the position of the focus ring. See Adjusting the Image Position and Focus.
  • Adjust the sharpness of the image using the Sharpness settings. See Adjusting the Picture. Be careful not to over-adjust the sharpness, or you may get banding in some images.
