Shooting
• Use the LCD monitor to compose close-ups in macro mode since
images composed with the viewfinder may be off-center (p. 43).
• The exposure may not be optimal when the flash is used in macro mode
in the range of 5 to 30 cm (2.0 in. to 1.0 ft.).
See Photo Tips and Information (p. 181).
Image Area in Macro Mode
When the zoom is set between the maximum telephoto and wide-
angle settings, the effective distance from the lens to the subject
becomes the same as for the maximum telephoto setting.
