Advanced (Recording pictures)
•
When a subject is close to the camera, the effective focus range is significantly narrowed.
Therefore, if the distance between the camera and the subject is changed after focusing on the
subject, it may become difficult to focus on it again.
•
AF macro mode gives priority to a subject close to the camera, so if the distance between the
camera and the subject is more than 2 m (6.57 feet), it takes longer to focus.
•
When you take pictures at close range, the resolution of the periphery of the picture may
decrease slightly. This is not a malfunction.
•
If the lens becomes dirty with fingerprints or dust, the lens may not be able to focus on the
subject correctly.
[REC] mode:
