Selecting the Flash/Macro Mode (Cont’d)
Off (Flash Override)
- Use this mode for places (such as museum) where flash is prohibited, or
when taking a picture of a night view, or taking a picture using indoor lighting.
- The flash will not come on even when it is dark.
• Use a tripod to prevent shaking as shutter speeds are slower in the dark.
• If the green LED flashes when the shutter button pressed half-way, this is a warning
that the lighting is not sufficient and the resulting picture will be dark.
Shooting Close Up Range
Macro-photo Mode
- Use this mode when you want to be close to the subject.
- If the distance between the camera and the subject is close, there will be a
difference between the image in the viewfinder and the picture that is actually
taken. It is recommended that the LCD monitor be used.
- If you use the TELE zoom button to zoom in fully on the image and then
press the ̇ button, the camera switches to Super Macro mode, allowing
you to zoom in even further on the subject.
• Use a tripod to prevent shaking as shutter speeds are slower when taking close-ups.
• If you use the TELE flash when shooting very close to the subject, the image may
come out too bright. For information about the flash shooting distance, see page
45.
