Focus Details

Autofocus Illuminator

If the flash is raised and the camera detects that the scene is too dark
to focus accurately, the flash will automatically fire a few short bursts
before and after the lens focuses (AF Illuminator). This provides the
light necessary for the camera to detect and focus on your subject.

The range of the AF illuminator flash is approximately 1 to 5m
(3.3-16 ft.).

The AF illuminator flash may not fire when the focal length you

are using is 300mm or more, or when the AF Macro ZOOM 3X-
1X is used.

TO TURN THE AF ILLUMINATOR OFF:

Press and hold the red-eye reduction button while you turn the
camera on.

"OFF AL ” appears in the data panel.

To turn the AF Illuminator again, repeat the procedure so that
“ON AL ” appears in the data panel.
