With the macro mode, you can take pictures as close as 20 cm (7.8 in.)

lets you shoot as close as 9 cm (3.5 in.) to the subject.

mode and select & ON.
When the macro mode is selected,
& is displayed on the monitor.
Take the picture using the monitor.
You can take pictures of your subject at a distance of more than 50 cm (1.6
ft.) with the macro mode set to ON. However, the camera will take longer
than usual to focus.
If you use the flash in macro shooting, shadows may be noticeable and the
appropriate exposure may not be obtained.
You cannot use the macro mode together with the super macro mode.
