5S (Factory-preset: OFF)

Anim.: Allows you to record a few frames only. By using an inanimate object and changing its position between shots, you can record the subject as though it is moving.

When “5S” is set to “Anim.”, the 5-Second Recording mode is not available. Animation recording of a few frames only is taken instead.

Maximum telephoto setting

Usually the distance to a subject where the lens is in focus depends on the zoom magnification. Unless there is a distance more than 1 m to the subject, the lens is out of focus at the maximum telephoto setting.

TELE MACRO (Factory-preset: OFF)

OFF: Disables the function.

ON: When set to “ON”, you can shoot a subject as large as possible at a distance of approx.

60 cm.

NOTE:

Depending on the zoom position, the lens may go out of focus.
