Correct me if I’m wrong, but the photos of the lens switch look like it has Zero to Infinity and Half Meter to Infinity options. So would this be for situations where you don’t want the lens locking on to very close subjects?

Yeah, you get a thumbs up for spotting that... it's a 'FULL' Vs '0.5m-INFINITY' Focus Limiter switch.. which seems vaguely wrong now that I think about it.  Normally the wide lenses often try to target the background.  I think they should have either left the switch off altogether or set it with the option to keep the focus in the range close.  Surely Canon know what they're doing... I hope...
