Canon 100 HS, IXUS 115 HS Shooting Close-ups(Macro), Shooting Far Away Subjects (Infinity)

Shooting Close-ups (Macro)

You can shoot an object at a close distance or even shoot extreme close-ups of it. The focusing range is approximately 3 – 50 cm (1.2 in. – 1.6 ft.) from the end of the lens at maximum wide angle (j).

Choose e.

zAfter pressing the q button, press the qr

buttons to choose e, then press the m button.

XOnce set, e will appear on the screen.

The edges of the image may darken if the flash fires.

How can I take better close-ups?

In macro shooting, try attaching the camera to a tripod and shooting in Î to prevent the camera from moving and blurring the image (p. 59).

e will turn gray in the area that displays in the yellow bar underneath the zoom bar, and the camera will not focus.

Shooting Far Away Subjects (Infinity)

When it is difficult to focus because your shot contains subjects that are both near and far, you can change the focusing range to focus more reliably on far away subjects (approx. 3 m (9.8 ft.) or more from the camera) only.

Choose u.

zAfter pressing the q button, press the qr buttons to choose u, then press the m button.

XOnce set, u will appear on the screen.
