image. NTSC: “Not Used”, “1/15”, and “1/8.” PAL: “Not Used”, “1/12”, and “1/6”. A longer shutter

Tip
The auto focus might have difficulty with the following objects:
Subjects with little
or no contrast
(a white wall, for
example)
Angled subjects
Highly reflective
subjects
Subjects that
consist entirely of
oblique or horizontal
lines or stripes
Insubstantial
subjects such as
flames or smoke
Subjects seen
through glass
Quickly moving
subjects
Night views or dark
places
Far and near
subjects in a frame
The focusing range (approx) differs depend on the Day Mode or Night Mode. The
ranges for Wide and Tele ends are the same.
* When you are using an infrared lamp, the focusing range for “Auto” and “Auto (for
domes)” will be approximately 0.6m (23.6in) to
, and for “Fixed at infinity”, it may
become out of focus depending on objects.
When focus adjustment is difficult (e.g., when shooting a night scene which has
low contrast), it is recommended to fix the focus to infinity.
