[QUOTE="PaulPosition, post: 326902, member: 25700"] This switch is to limit the auto-focus range so that it doesn't even try to focus on stuff closer than, say, 10m (totally made up number, check your manual for the real deal). Two small advantages go with it : camera is able to acquire focus faster because it hunts in a smaller range, and it saves you from those shots where you've got perfect focus on the fence or the head of a spectator and complete blurry subject doing the most amazing thing (still) never caught on camera.
