[FOCUS PRIORITY]
•
It is recommended that this feature be left on, to minimize the possibility of pictures with poor
focus.
•
[FOCUS PRIORITY] is disabled during motion picture recording.
[AF ASSIST LAMP]
•
The effective range of the AF Assist Lamp is different depending on used lens.
–
When the interchangeable lens (H-H014) is attached and at
Approx. 1.0 m (3.28 feet) to 3.5 m (11.5 feet)
–
When the interchangeable lens (H-FS014042) is attached and at Wide: Approx. 1.0 m
(3.28 feet) to 3.0 m (9.84 feet)
•
The AF Assist Lamp is valid only for the subject in the center of the screen. Use it by
positioning the subject in the center of the screen.
•
Remove the lens hood.
•
When you do not want to use the AF Assist Lamp (e.g. when taking pictures of animals in dark
places), set the [AF ASSIST LAMP] to [OFF]. In this case, it will become more difficult to focus
on the subject.
•
The AF Assist Lamp gets slightly blocked when the interchangeable lens (H-FS014042) is
used, but it does not affect the performance.
•
The AF Assist Lamp may be greatly blocked, and it may become harder to focus when a lens
with large diameter is used.
•
The setting for the [AF ASSIST LAMP] is fixed to [OFF] in [SCENERY], [ARCHITECTURE],
[NIGHT SCENERY] and [SUNSET] in Scene Mode.
[AF+MF]
Recording
It will set so no picture can be taken when it is out of focus.
[OFF]:
This gives priority to the best time to take a picture so
you can take a picture when the shutter button is
pressed fully.
[ON]:
You cannot take a picture until the subject is brought
into focus.
Illuminating the subject makes it easier for the camera to focus
when recording in low light conditions that make focusing difficult.
[OFF]:
The AF Assist Lamp does not turn on.
[ON]:
When taking pictures in dark places, the AF Assist
Lamp lights while the shutter button is pressed
halfway. (Larger AF areas are displayed depending on
the recording conditions.)
It is possible to adjust focus manually after it was adjusted
automatically.
[OFF]
[ON]:
It is possible to finely adjust the focus manually by
rotating the focus ring while AF lock ([FOCUS MODE]
is set to [AFS] and shutter button is half-way pressed,
or AF lock with [AF/AE LOCK]).
