REC Tab

Focus

The focus range is the distance from the lens surface.

The minimum changes along with the optical zoom setting.

Super Macro

Super Macro fixes optical zoom at a position that allows you to shoot from the closest
distance to the subject. The result is closer and larger subject images.

NOTE

•

Zoom is fixed while Super Macro is selected, so no zoom operation is performed when
you slide the zoom controller.
