RECORDING - BASIC OPERATION
Macro modes
Macro focusing is selected by pressing the left
key of the controller (1). To select Super Macro,
first zoom the lens to the maximum telephoto
position and then select the appropriate mode
with the controller. The active mode is displayed
in the top left corner of the LCD monitor.
The minimum subject distance changes with the
zoom position of the lens. Super Macro is only
available at the telephoto position of the lens.

If the subject is outside the flash range (p. 47), overexposure may result. To prevent the flash from
firing, set the flash mode to flash cancel (p. 28).
Always use the monitor to frame the image. The use of a tripod is recommended.
Camera shake is more noticeable with long exposures or close-up pictures. In these situations,
place the camera on a tripod and make the exposure with the self-timer (p. 42) to prevent
shaking the camera.
