AF Assist Light/Self-timer Lamp
The AF assist light operates automatically to assist the Auto
Focus operation whenever you are shooting where lighting is
dim. This lamp also flashes to indicate the countdown until
the shutter releases during a self-timer operation.
IMPORTANT!
• Auto Focus using the AF assist light/ self-timer lamp is
possible when the distance from the camera to the
subject is less than about 2.5 meters.
• When the AF assist light operates while Multi-area AF
or Spot AF is specified as the focus mode, the camera
automatically assumes that focus area is the center
area for Spot AF. See pages E-62 and E-63 for more
information.
• Do not look directly at the AF assist light/self-timer
lamp or point it directly at the subject's eyes.
