Illuminating the subject makes it easier for
the camera to focus when recording in low
light conditions that make focusing difficult.
Be careful about the following when using
the AF assist lamp.
Do not look at the AF assist lamp from
close up.
Do not attach the lens hood.
Do not cover the AF assist lamp with
your fingers or other objects.
When you do not want to use the AF
assist lamp (e.g. when taking pictures of
animals in dark places), set the
[AF ASSIST LAMP] to [OFF]. In this case,
it will become more difficult to focus on the
subject.
When you use a lens with a large filter
diameter that obscures the AF assist
lamp, shadows may appear on the picture
and the performance of the camera may
deteriorate.
