Avoid using zoom while underwater to take pictures of subjects at far
away distances. For best underwater pictures, keep your subjects within
2 m / 6 ft shooting distance.
If the focus area frame is red, the light conditions or contrast may be too
low. Try setting the focus to Infinity [landscape] and maintain at least 2ft
(60cm) shooting distance.
