Focus modes and self-timer

Macro and landscape focus modes as well as a self-timer can be selected by pressing the left key of the controller (1) until the appropriate mode is displayed. The active mode is displayed in the top left corner of the LCD monitor.

Macro – used for close-up photographs. The minimum subject distance changes with the zoom position of the lens.

Wide-angle position	Telephoto position
6cm (2.4in) – inf.	50cm (19.7in) – inf.

If the subject is outside the flash range (p. 51), overexposure may result. To prevent the flash from firing, set the flash mode to flash cancel (p. 28).

Always use the monitor to frame the image. The use of a tripod is recommended. Macro can be used with the self-timer, see below.

Shooting Tips

Camera shake is more noticeable with long exposures or close-up pictures. In these situations, place the camera on a tripod and make the exposure with the self-timer to prevent shaking the camera.
