AF illuminator
When
required,
such
as for
low-contrast
subjects
in low light, the AF illuminator
will
be activated
when
the shutter-release
button
is pressed
halfway.
This focus-assist
illumi-
nati
n is projected
on the subject,
enabling
the camera's
autofocus
system
to determine
focus status
and adjust
the lens.
For best results,
the subject
should
be be-
tween
1.6 ft. to 29.5
ft. (O.5m and 9ml.*
If
the subject
is outside
this range, or whenever
the camera's
focus signals indicate
that auto-
focusing
is not possible,
set camera
to manual
focus mode and focus manually.
