❚❚ Taking Photographs

If you hold the zoom control to 

g 

after zooming in to the maximum 
optical zoom position, you can 
further increase magnification by up 
to 4× with digital zoom. Digital zoom 
is available only when 

selector is chosen for Scene selection (

A 22); d mode 

is automatically selected when digital zoom is in effect.

At positions past the V icon in the 
zoom display, the zoom display turns 
yellow to indicate that pictures may 
become noticeably “grainy”. The V 
icon moves to the right at smaller image sizes (

A 24).

: If faces are detected, 

the camera will focus on the face 
closest to the camera. If no face is 
detected or digital zoom is in effect, 
the camera will focus on the subject 
in the center of the display.

The AF-assist illuminator (

light to assist the focus operation if 
the subject is poorly lit.

The illuminator has a range of about 
1.7 m (5 ft 6 in.) at the maximum 
wide-angle position and about 1.5 m 
(4 ft 11 in.) at the maximum telephoto position.

Although the focus area may still be displayed or the in-

focus indicator light green, the camera may fail to focus if the 
subject is very dark, fast-moving, mixes areas of sharply 
contrasting brightness (e.g., is half in the shade) or near and 
distant objects (e.g., is behind the bars of a cage), is dominated 
by regular geometric patterns (e.g., venetian blinds or a row of 
windows in a skyscraper), or contrasts poorly with the 
background (e.g., is the same color as the background). Should 
this occur, try pressing the shutter-release button halfway a 
second time or recomposing the photograph.
