It depends on what you are shooting. If your subjects are further away than 3m from you then setting the focus limiter to 3m makes sense, allowing for less hunting and faster focusing. If your subjects are going to be closer than 3m then you have to set the switch to 1.5m...

3m is faster because it doesn't try to focus between 1.5m and 3m, you can only put it on that if your sure you won't need to focus closer than 3m...
