is set to = (Standard).
When it is off and the focus mode is set to = (Standard), the AF operates only in
the standard range, and focusing is not done in the macro range.
When the focus mode is set to q (Macro) or (1cm Macro), the focus is only
adjusted in the respective macro ranges and is not done in the standard range.

Setting the Auto Macro
Setting the = Assist Light (Focus Assist)
Looking at the light directly will not create a safety hazard. However, do not
look into the emitter from a very short distance since you may feel dazzled.
The camera does not emit the focus assist light depending on the selected
shooting mode or focus mode. Refer to “Functions Available for Each
Shooting Mode” (p.210) for details.
