Macro mode shooting
— Taking close-up pictures
Allows you to shoot close to the subject (no closer than 0.2 m (0.6 ft)) so that
you can fill the entire frame with your subject while the zoom lever is pressed
to the maximum W position.
If the center of the frame (within the AF target mark) is metered when you are
close to the subject and you shoot with the optimal exposure, the picture will
turn out well (Spot mMacro mode).
T
See “Spot metering” (P. 91).
If you are close to a subject, the picture area in the viewfinder is different from
the picture that the camera actually records (P. 72). For macro mode
shooting, we recommend using the monitor (P. 74).
