is only available in recording still images. The Drive mode setting is automatically set to off when you turn off the
camera.
To activate Drive mode:
• Tap the onscreen Drive button to display the popup drive mode menu and tap the desired icon.
Description
With normal focus, the focus range starts from 0.4m (about 16 inches) to near infinity.
When the camera is set to Normal mode, there is no icon displayed on the screen.
This mode is designed for close-up photography. This mode should be used for
subjects closer that are 0.4 m (or 16 inches) from the lens. If Macro is enabled, the
camera can capture the detail and sharpness of a very close subject by fixed focus.
This mode is designed to accurately focus on a desired subject so that closer and
further objects are out of focus. For example, the camera might focus on a nearby
tree, and the distant trees and mountains are blurry, as well as an even closer object
such as a flower.
When Infinity is set, the camera focuses on distant objects. This may be good to use
when taking landscape photos.
