Autofocus can fail to achieve focus (the focus confirmation light <o>
blinks) with certain subjects such as the following:
Subjects difficult to focus
Low-contrast subjects
Example: Blue sky, solid-color walls, etc.
Subjects in low light
Extremely backlit and reflective subjects
Example: Car with a reflective body, etc.
Overlapping near and far objects
Example: Animal in a cage, etc.
Repetitive patterns
Example: Skyscraper windows, computer keyboards, etc.
In such cases, do one of the following:
(1) Focus an object at the same distance as the subject and lock the
focus before recomposing. (p.48)
(2) Set the lens focus mode switch to <MF> and focus manually.

when focus is achieved.
