try this...
Take portrait snapshots of your friends and yourself in dim lit environments (pubs, dim lit wine and dine's) using focus LED function with flash (twilight portrait mode without infinity shot mode) and then try using the trick without the flash (twilight portrait mode with infinity shot mode) do all this within 3-5 feet or an outstretched arm's length between your camera and the subject you're snapping photo's with.
next, compare the two pictures.
to me, both are the same. you'll realize that too. why? because both serve the same function.
But most importantly, try it first and you'll figure out why this trick is better...
- the method of using infinity is faster to take pictures with while still maintaining clarity while focus mode takes a moment to establish clarity; only then you can take a shot. In other words, using the focus takes time... while without it, you just point and shoot. Good for taking quick moment shots...
- if you've tried the LED focus function to take your own snapshot at night, don't your eyes hurt waiting for the focus audible indicator? Try it on your friends (especially those who are sensitive to light or those who are not familiar with your camera) and see them squint and spoil moment on your phone the next time you use focus LED mode.
- Have you tried taking pictures of people at night that move constantly? The result of using both methods are the same: whether using focus or not, both produce the same result regardless whether the result of the snapshot is blurry or clear. This is the limitation of the flash and the distance of the subject you're taking. It's got nothing to do with focus.
- The method serves as a universal snapshot function. How many times must you tell your friends to wait while you change your cybershot profile to the one that fits, and ask them summore to wait and smile longer to focus and then take their photo?
- Do a speedshot (slide the camera lid, wait till phototaking mode is activated and quickly snap whatever you're targetting) in LED focus, if the focus is not locked during picture taking, it will produce a blurry image but compare those times you take without relying on LED focus and you'll notice most of your pictures will be clearer than using LED focus in a hurry.
