Which firmware version. I won't repeat my story.

What was the sensor aimed at? The sensitivity of the sensor
for the camera to successfully auto-focus in a dark scene may
be the problem. If I aim at a subject that is too close to focus,
the camera can go into the hunting mode.
I love manual focus in these moments.
