z When shooting subjects within the 5 to 46 cm
(2.0 in. – 1.5 ft.) wide angle range or the 26 to
46 cm (10 in. – 1.5 ft.) telephoto range, use

(14 ft.) at wide angle and 2.5 m (8.2 ft.) at
telephoto (When sensitivity is set to AUTO).
z Raise the ISO sensitivity and then shoot. (See
Changing the ISO Speed (p. 84))
