Taking Shots Close Up
(Macro Mode)
Use macro mode for shooting subjects close to the camera. This mode lets you move
in quite close, so that even a small subject will fill the frame.
When using macro, you should maintain a distance of 8 to 31 inches from the subject.
While it is possible to take macro shots from any distance, images taken at less than 8
inches or farther than 31 inches are likely to be out of focus or poorly exposed.
When subject is at minimum distance (8 inches)
For a telephoto shot, push the zoom lever to T.
The monitor is filled by a 3"
×
2" subject.
For a wide shot, push the zoom lever to W.
The monitor is filled by an 8"
×
6" subject.

HELP
• Using flash together with macro may result in pronounced shadows.
• If you use flash when shooting very close to your subject (at about 8 inches), the right
side of the picture will come out relatively dark. This is a normal characteristic of this
camera’s flash mechanism.
