The AF-Assist Illuminator is available, if an AF lens is mounted and the camera’s focus mode is set to S 
(Single Servo AF with focus priority), AF-A, or AF.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The effective shooting distance with the AF-Assist Illuminator is approx. 1 m to 10 m (3.3 to 33 ft.) from the 
center of the image with a 50mm f/1.8 lens. The shooting distance varies depending on the lens in use.

autofocusing is available, are as follows: 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The AF-Assist illuminator will not light up, if the camera’s autofocus is locked or the ZR-45’s ready-light does 
not come on.
