Hi,

I am upset with problem that I have started facing recently and that is, camera is unable to focus on near objects.

Any valuable comments are most welcome.

What lens are you using ?
That should help establish what the problem is ..

Is it possible you have somehow switched on the focus limiter?

Check in-camera focus limiter settings and if the lens you are using has it, check it isn’t limiting and excluding closer distances.

To let you know, I have no problems shooting at min focal range using the 18-55 ... AF range limiter is set to OFF. I would suggest a full reset to default then doing another test ...

Two examples ....

The focus limiter option is on page 3 of the AF menu - for future reference that was very likely your problem and worth checking before doing a full reset.
