0.8m – '. For subjects closer than 0.8m, use the macro

small area within the focus frame as
illustrated on the right by the shaded box.
Press the shutter-release button partway down (1) to lock the focus and exposure.

subject. Repeat the previous steps until the lamp is
steady.
Press the shutter-release button all the way down (2) to take the pic-
ture.
• Both the focus and flash lamps will glow indicating the image data
is being written to the memory card. Never
remove a memory card while data is being
transferred.

played back for three seconds by activating
