When you operate the camera, the description of functions is displayed.
Reduces the red-eye phenomenon when using the
flash. Select this before shooting.
• Because it takes about a second until the shutter clicks, hold the camera firmly to prevent the effects of
vibration. Also, do not let the subject move.
• Red-eye reduction may not produce the desired effects depending on individual differences, the distance
to the subject, if the subject does not see the pre-strobe, or other conditions.
The AF illuminator supplies fill light to focus more easily on a subject in dark surroundings.
The AF illuminator emits red light allowing the camera to focus easily when the shutter button
is pressed halfway, until the focus is locked. The
indicator appears at this time.
• If the AF illuminator light does not reach the subject sufficiently or the subject has no contrast, focus will
not be achieved. (A distance of up to approximately 2.5 m (98 5/8 inches) (zoom: W) / 1.5 m
(59 1/4 inches) (zoom: T) is recommended.)
• Focus is achieved as long as the AF illuminator light reaches the subject, even if the light is slightly off the
center of the subject.
• The AF range finder frame does not appear, when using the AF illuminator.
• The AF illuminator does not operate when
(Twilight mode) or
(Landscape mode) is selected in
the Scene mode.
• The AF illuminator emits very bright light. Although there are no problems with safety, do not look
directly into the AF illuminator emitter at close range.
