Q Depth-of-field AE

• If you are using a zoom lens, do not zoom before the picture is taken.

• If a slow shutter speed is set, use a tripod to prevent camera shake.

• The <Q> mode cannot be used if the lens focus mode switch is set

<MF>. The result will be the same as using the <S> mode.

• The <Q> mode cannot be used if you use flash or remote control. The

result will be the same as using the <S> mode with flash.

• If you are using the <Q> mode with a lens that has a focus-limiting

switch, set the switch to “minimum focusing distance - ∞.”

•To cancel <Q> at any time, turn the Mode Dial to any setting except

<Q>.

•To check the depth of field while using depth-of-field AE, set DEP points 1

and 2 and press the shutter button halfway. Then press the depth-of-field

preview button.

•To further increase the depth of field, use a wide-angle lens.

• Setting DEP points 1 and 2 at the same point on the subject will make the

depth of field shallow. The foreground and background will then be blurred,

making the subject stand out. Using a telephoto lens enhances this effect.
