B Notes About Shooting with the Flash
The flash may be unable to light the entire subject at distances of less than 50 cm
(1 ft 8 in.).
C Focus Mode Setting
• The setting may not be available with some shooting modes.
• For shooting modes j, k, l and m, the setting is saved in the camera’s memory
even after the camera is turned off.
A
Autofocus
The camera automatically adjusts the focus according to the distance to the
subject. Use when the distance from the subject to the lens is 50 cm (1 ft 8
in.) or more, or 2.0 m (6 ft 7 in.) or more at the maximum telephoto zoom
position.
• The focus mode icon on the shooting screen is displayed only
immediately after the setting is made.
D
Macro close-up
Set when taking close-up images.
When the zoom ratio is set to a position where F and the zoom indicator
glow green, the camera can focus on subjects as close as approximately 10
cm (4 in.) from the lens. When the zoom is at the position where G is
displayed, the camera can focus on subjects as close as approximately 1 cm
(0.4 in.) from the lens.
B
Infinity
Use when shooting distant scenes through window glass or when shooting
landscapes.
The camera automatically adjusts the focus near infinity.
• The camera may not be able to focus on nearby objects.
• The flash mode is set to W (off).
E
Manual focus
The focus can be adjusted on any subject at a distance from approximately
1 cm (0.4 in.) to infinity from the lens (A67). The closest distance at which
the camera can focus varies depending on the zoom position.
