Notes
•You can use HOLOGRAM AF only when the optional flash is attached.
•Attaching the lens hood or a conversion lens (optional) may obstruct the
HOLOGRAM AF light and make focusing difficult. We recommend removing the lens
hood or a conversion lens while shooting with the HOLOGRAM AF.
•If enough light does not reach the subject even if the HOLOGRAM AF emitter is
emitted, the subject will not be focused.
•Focusing may be hampered if the light emitted from the HOLOGRAM AF is blocked
by an obstruction.
•Focus is achieved as long as HOLOGRAM AF light reaches to the subject even if its
light is slightly out of the middle position of the subject.
•If HOLOGRAM AF light is dim, it sometimes becomes difficult to focus. If this
happens, wipe the HOLOGRAM AF emitter with a soft, dry cloth.
The HOLOGRAM AF does not emit when:
– Focus manually
– Spot Focus
– Sunset & moon of PROGRAM AE
– Landscape of PROGRAM AE
– Continuous photo recording
