6. Close-up Shooting
The yellow line on the distance scale indicates the range in which image degradation is minimal during
close-up shooting.* The following procedure shows how to focus within the range indicated by the
yellow line in order to capture photos with high denition.
*
However, maximum magnication is 0.5x when shooting within the range indicated by the yellow line on the distance scale.
We recommend using a tripod for close-up (macro) shooting.
2 Adjust the zoom ring and
position the camera by
moving it forward or back.
Set the magnication
and obtain a rough focus
by using the zoom ring
to adjust the focusing
distance.
A rough focus is obtained so
that the user can focus when
shooting within the range
indicated by the yellow line on
the distance scale.
3 Press the shutter button
halfway and focus using AF
or MF before shooting.
In order to achieve a sharp focus
in manual focus (MF) mode,
please use the magnied view
feature* which is found in cameras
that offer Live View shooting.
* For information about this
feature, see the camera’s
instruction manual.
In addition, please also
read the Live View shooting
cautions section found in the
camera’s instruction manual.
