AdditionalInformation
o To cancel Depth-of-Field AE in mid-
operation,set the command dial to
a n o t h e rp o s i t i o n .
o Whenusingazoom lens,do not change
the focal length after settingthe first
point.Alwaysset the focal lengthfirst.
o Wide-angle lensesare best usedin this
modefor maximumdepth-of-field effect.
Lenseswith a focal lengthlongerthan
200 mm are not recommendedfor deep
depth of field.
o Thismodecan alsobe usedto minimize
depthof field by focusingon the same
pointbothtimes.A telephotolensgives
portraitsthe best shallowdepth-of{ield
effect.
o lf the focus pointsare extremelynear
and far, the shutterspeedmay be very
slow.We recommendusing a tripod.
