OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS
• When installing a wide angle conversion lens, be sure to
turn off the camera so the lens is retracted. This protects
against scratching of the lens.
• When using a wide angle conversion lens, select Auto
Focus or Macro ( ) as the focus mode (page 80).
•
The wide angle conversion lens may cause distortion of an
image.
• When using a close-up lens, be sure to set the focus
mode to Macro ( ) (page 80). Proper focus of a close-
up image is not possible with any other focus mode.
■Conversion Lens and Close-up Lens
Precautions
• Be sure to install the TELE CONVERTER ADAPTOR or
WIDE CONVERTER ADAPTOR before installing a
conversion lens or close-up lens.
• Carefully read the user documentation that comes with
the conversion lenses and close-up lens for information
about how to use them properly.
• Be sure to use the monitor screen to compose images
while a conversion lens or close-up lens is installed on
the camera. Do not use the viewfinder, because its image
is not changed by the lens you are using. Also, there will
be
darkening around the edges of the image within the
viewfinder.
•
Installing a conversion lens or close-up lens can interfere
with proper operation of the camera’s built-in flash.
When using a conversion lens or close-up lens, select
(Off) for the flash mode or use an external flash (page 149).
• When using a telephoto conversion lens, select Auto
Focus as the focus mode (page 80).
• Using optical zoom to select wide angle while a telephoto
conversion lens is installed can cause blackening around
the edges of the image. Set optical zoom to telephoto
(page 68).
•
Use of a tripod is recommended to avoid camera movement
during recording with a telephoto conversion lens.
