setting.
NOTE
The difference between 5 (total range focus mode) and 8 (macro focus mode)
œ 5 allows you to capture images of subjects at a distance of 3 cm or greater with autofocus
and without changing the focus mode setting. However, compared to 8 and 6, the time
required for focusing is longer. For a faster focus, select 8 for objects that are close and 6
for object that are medium to far.
œ Be aware that when you are capturing an image with both near and far objects, the 5 setting
will not put all objects into focus.
