Macro photography
*Wide macro
When you try to take a picture of someone sitting right next to you, the camera may not be able to focus properly. In this case, macro mode (wide) comes in handy. Wide macro allows you to take close up pictures on a wide angle setting (as close as 60 cm (2.0 ft) at 40 mm focal length). At the same time the autofocus flash can be used. It is convenient to use the zoom memory to memorize a wide macro setting. And it is particularly convenient if you usually use macro mode
for snapshots.
*TeIe macro
Use Tele macro mode to make small subjects appear large. With tele macro mode you can shoot at a focal length of 100 mm as close as 60 cm
(2.0 ft) from your subject. At this range, the pic- ture will capture an area of about 15 cm x 22 cm
