Picture blur is possible
The light is probably dim and the
automatically selected shutter speed is
slow. This can cause picture blur due
to camera shake. Hold the camera
steady, or use a tripod. Or, use a builtin flash.

Autofocus requires that the subject
have some contrast or details to focus

wall, a very shiny surface, a subject
which has no details or contrast.

one, or wait for the temperature to rise and then press the
rewind button.
