Macro mode shooting
— Taking close-up pictures
The macro mode allows you to shoot close to the
subject (within 10 cm – 60 cm (0.3 ft – 2 ft)). When
the zoom lever is pressed to the maximum W
position, you can fill the entire frame with your
subject.
Focusing is usually slow when you get close to a
subject. However, in the
(macro) mode focusing
is performed quickly.
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 m Macro
mode) (P. 85).
