Illuminating the subject makes it easier for the camera to focus when recording in low light
conditions that make focusing difficult.
Applicable modes:
[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 now displayed.)
Note
•
The effective range of the AF assist lamp is 1.5 m.

When you do not want to use the AF assist lamp A (e.g. when taking
