Focus range

●●In [Snapshot Mode], the shortest focusing distance will be the same as that for [   ], regardless of the focus selector switch setting.

●●With the [   ] mode, it can take longer to focus on subjects at normal distances.

●●Using a tripod and [Self Timer] is recommended. Also, we recommend that you close the flash to set to [ ] (Forced flash off).

●●Moving the camera after focusing is likely to result in unsharp pictures if the subject is close to the camera, due to the fact that at short distance settings, the range of sharp rendition is extremely limited.

●●It is not possible to set AF Macro Mode in the following cases. ••In all Scene Modes except [3D Photo Mode]
