AF ILLUMINATOR
32 33
In low light situations or when the
contrast of your main subject is
too low to be read by the AF
sensors, the autofocus illuminator
will activate automatically. The AF
illuminator projects a pattern of
lines onto your subject which the
AF sensors detect and use to
focus.
• Be careful not to obstruct the AF illuminator while holding the camera.
• The range of the AF illuminator is 0.7 - 7m.
• The AF illuminator will not operate if the camera is in Continuous
Autofocus Mode (p 64).
• The AF illuminator will not operate with a 300mm or longer focal length
lens (excluding the AF Zoom/AF Zoom xi 100-300 and AF Zoom 75-
300).
• The AF illuminator will not operate with the 3x-1x Macro Zoom.
• When a program flash is attached, its AF illuminator will be active in
place of the camera’s AF illuminator.
