About the focus distance reference

mark

The focus distance reference mark is a mark used to measure the focus distance. Use this when taking pictures with manual focus or taking close-up pictures.

If the distance between the camera and the subject is beyond the focus range of the camera, the picture may not be properly focused even if the focus indication lights.

The available flash range is about 2.0 m (6.6 feet) to 5.5 m (18.0 feet) (Wide) (When the ISO sensitivity is set to

[AUTO].). We recommend setting the flash

to Forced OFF [] when you take pictures at close range.

If you are taking close-up pictures

We recommend using a tripod and the self-timer (P74).

The effective focus range (depth of field) is significantly narrowed. Therefore, if the distance between the camera and the subject is changed after focusing on the subject, it may become difficult to focus on it again.

The resolution of the periphery of the picture may decrease slightly. This is not a malfunction.
