Bad low light focus

Hello.

It would seem, from my experience, that the A80 has quite a few problems with focusing.

The camera is brilliant but to tap in to this you will need to set the camera up the way you want it, in short forget the "Auto" setting and set the camera up in such a way as to be more general about it's photo taking.

To do this you'll need to set up the custom settings to your liking, this you can do by clicking on the link i leave you then scroll down to the section marked, (self made snap mode).

Once you've set your camera up in this way you really will start to take better and better shots.

Good luck

Hi,
thanks for your opinion. I have a litte opinion about the A80 focus issue. From my experience and experiment, I notice that in low light and indoor condition, AIAF helps in focus on different contrast subject! Althought it is not a good idea to turn on the AIAF, but sometimes it really works in low light condition! AIAF have 9 focusing point, but normal focus just be able to focus in the centre and I had tried the normal and AIAF way. AIAF turns to be imprssive when focus at low light condition! Maybe I should try manual focus! Anyone have any tips of idea on using AIAF more efficiently?Desperatel​y need some help here! Another thing I hate about the A80 is the size of the LCD screen is too small compare to other model in it's range such as A70, A75 and A60. The 'small' screen on the A80 make us hard to determine whether the subject is in focus or out of focus. Everything on the screens shows that everything is in focus eventhough there's some out of focus! I always check the photos taken by replay back and zoom into the image! Any comment or suggestion or tips?
