  | 
  | ♦ON  | Usually the distance to a subject where the lens is in focus  | 
  | |
  | 
  | 
  | depends on the zoom magnification. Unless there is a  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | distance more than 1m to the subject, the lens is out of focus  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | at the maximum telephoto setting. When set to “ON”, you  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | can shoot a subject as large as possible at a distance of  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | approx. 60 cm.  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | •Depending on the zoom position, the lens may go out of  |

  | AGC | Allows you to record a subject in a dark environment. It  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | delivers a brighter, if slightly coarse, picture.  | 
  | 
  | ♦ A  | (Auto Slow Shutter) Combines AGC with electronic shutter  | 
  | |
  | 
  | 
  | speed (1/30 to 1/60) for shooting under much darker  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | conditions. When shooting in poorly lit areas, or when  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | shooting a dark subject in dim lighting, the unit will  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | automatically enter the Auto Slow Shutter mode, reducing  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | the shutter speed to 1/30 sec. Although the resulting picture  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | will be similar to that obtained when using Strobe (☞ pg. 27),  | 
  | 
  | 
  | 
  | the image will be clear with less noise.  |
