Samsung Pro 815 autofocus

Hi
Has anyone had a problem with the auto focus on this camera. Some photos are great and are truly sharp and others will not focus at all and are very blurred.

There seems to be reason for this as photos can be taken one after another and the autofocus refuses to focus on a specific area and I am left with the red box as opposed to the green box.

Any help or advice would be very gratefully received or is this a known problem with this camera?

The Pro 815 lacks optical image stabilization, which is a problem especially when a longer zoom is used as camera shake is magnified at longer zoom lengths.

Thanks for that.

The problem occurs throughout the range of the zoom but is intermittent - the worst type of problem.
