To Set the Focus Assist Light
• Looking at the light directly does not pose a safety but you may feel
dazzled. Do not look directly into the emitter from a very short distance.
• The camera does not emit the focus assist light under the following
conditions:
- when the capture mode is set to c (Time-Lapse Movie), C (Movie)
or d (High Speed Movie) mode
- when s (Infinity) or \ is selected as the focus mode
• The default setting in e (Pet) mode is P.
