By using an inanimate object and changing its position between shots, you can record the subject as though it is moving ( pg. 35). Usually the distance to a subject where the lens is in focus depends on the zoom magnification. Unless there is a distance more than 1m (3.3 ft.) to the subject, the lens is out of focus at the maximum telephoto setting. When set to ON, you can shoot a subject as large as possible at a distance of approx. 60 cm (2 ft.). Depending on the zoom position, the lens may go out of focus.
