I’m sorry for the question but I can’t find another post with this problem or anything in my manual. I have a Konica Minolta Dimage G600.

When I take photos at night (with flash) without anything light around, the camera doesn’t know how to focus and when the flash goes off, the photos are always blurry. It takes 2-3 photos before the camera registers the subject of focus to get a clear shot. Is there a way to manipulate the camera before taking the photo to get it to focus with the flash?

Granted the camera is from 2004 so it might not have technology to do this reliably but maybe this is a common problem with older cameras that someone has found a workaround for?
