Using the Macro Mode
The Macro mode lets you focus on close up subjects
automatically. The automatic focus operation starts when
you press the shutter button down half way. The following
are the approximate focus ranges in the Macro mode.
Ranges: 10cm to 50cm (3.9˝ to 19.7˝) at wide angle
40cm to 50cm (15.6˝ to 19.7˝) at telephoto

Record the image.
• The focus and image recording operations are
identical to those in the Auto Focus mode.
• You can tell whether the image is focused by
observing the focus frame and the green operation
lamp. The indications of the focus frame and green
operation lamp are the same as those in the Auto
Focus mode.
IMPORTANT!
• Use of the flash along with wide angle zoom or the
Macro mode can cause the light of the flash to
become blocked, which can produce unwanted
shadows in your image.
NOTE
• When the Macro mode cannot focus properly
because the subject is too far away, the camera
automatically switches to the Auto Focus range
(page 81).
• Whenever you perform an optical zoom operation
(page 68) while recording with the Macro mode, a
value will appear on the monitor screen as shown
below to tell you the focusing range.
Example: 10cm – 50cm
