the subject.
For detailed information on how to properly focus and frame the subject, refer
to the Macro 5 SLR User's Guide.

strobes are fully charged, and the self-check routine is in progress.
5. The picture will automatically eject from the camera when the shutter button is
released.
Note: The camera powers down (shuts off) when:
• Picture count reaches zero (0).
• Self-check continuous loop times out - no camera activity for thirty
(30) seconds (
button pressed, setting changed, picture taken,
etc. ).
