Better Fuji Photos Episode 17: Focus Tips - Zone Focus

Autofocus isn't working. You don't want to bring the camera up to your face to focus manually. You can still get sharp photos just by estimating!

That's called the "Zone Focus" technique and that's what we'll cover in this episode: using the zone focus technique in Fujifilm cameras.

We cover:

  • What Zone Focus is
  • Setting up your Fujifilm camera to use Zone Focus
  • How simple Zone Focus is to use
  • Setting yourself up for success to use Zone Focus
  • Exercises to become proficient in Zone Focus
  • This isn't a technique that you can use all the time, but in situations where it works, it can certainly help you get great, sharp photos!
