Turning the Flash On

You can make the flash fire every time you shoot. At maximum wide angle, the flash range is approximately 30 cm – 4.0 m (12 in. – 13 ft.), and at maximum telephoto, it is 50 cm – 2.0 m (1.6 – 6.6 ft.)

Choose h.

After pressing the r button, press the qr buttons to choose h, then press the m button.

XOnce set, h will appear.

Shooting Close-ups (Macro)

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

Choose e.

After pressing the q button, press the qr buttons to choose e, then press the m button.

XOnce set, e will appear.

How can I take better close-ups?

You are recommended to attach the camera to a tripod and shoot in Î, to prevent the camera from moving and blurring the image (p. 75).

You can reduce the AF frame size when you want to focus on a specific portion of the subject (p. 80).

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