C Macro Close-up
In shooting modes such as scene modes that cannot use the Autofocus mode (A69), Full-time

pressed halfway when D (macro close-up) is set. You may hear a sound of the camera focusing.
A
Autofocus
The camera automatically adjusts the focus according to the distance to the subject.
Use when the distance from the subject to the lens is 50 cm (1 ft 8 in.) or more, or
2.0 m
(6 ft 7 in.) or more at the maximum telephoto zoom position.
D
Macro close-up
Use for close-ups of flowers or small objects.
How close you can be to the subject while shooting depends on the zoom position.
At the zoom position where F and the zoom indicator light in green, the camera can
focus on subjects as close as about 10 cm (4 in.) or farther from the lens. At the G
zoom position, it can focus on subjects as close as about 1 cm (0.4 in.) or farther from
the lens.
B
Infinity
Use when shooting distant scenes through window glass or when shooting landscapes.
The camera automatically adjusts the focus near infinity.
The camera may not be able to focus on nearby objects.
The flash does not fire.
E
Manual focus
The focus can be adjusted for any subject that is a distance of 1 cm (0.4 in.) to infinity
from the lens (E2). The closest distance at which the camera can focus varies
depending on the zoom position.
This function can be used when the shooting mode is j, k, l, m, M, special
effects mode or Sports scene mode.
