It may take some time until distant subjects come into focus.
 
Using a tripod and [Selftimer] is recommended. Also, when recording a subject that is 
close to the camera, setting [Flash] to 
 [Forced Flash Off] is recommended.
 
Moving the camera after aligning the focus is likely to result in poorly focused pictures 
if subject is close to the camera, due to the margin for focus alignment being severely 
reduced.
 
Resolution may be reduced around the edges of the picture.
 Focus range
When a subject is too close to the camera, the picture may not be properly focused. The 
shortest recording distance differs depending on the zoom ratio and the setting in macro 
recording mode.
