Macro Mode
Macro mode is used for taking pictures of objects as close as 1 cm (0.4 in.). Note
that the flash may be unable to light the entire subject at distances of less than
50 cm (1 ft 8 in.).
When using A (auto) mode, follow the procedure below. Macro mode can also
be used with some scene modes (A 39, 40, 41).
1 Press p (macro mode) on the multi selector.
The macro menu is displayed.
2 Press the multi selector H or I to select ON,
and press the k button.
The macro mode icon (F) is displayed.
If a setting is not applied by pressing the k button
within a few seconds, the selection is cancelled.
3 Turn the zoom control until the zoom
position reaches the position where F and
the zoom indicator glow green.
How close you can be to the subject when shooting
depends on the zoom position. When the zoom position
is set to a position where F and the zoom indicator glow
green, the camera can focus on subjects as close as about
7 cm (2.8 in.) from the lens.
When the zoom position is in the area indicated by 1, the camera can focus on objects
as close as about 1 cm (0.4 in.) from the lens.
