Shooting Close-ups (Macro/Super Macro)

Use this mode to shoot close-ups of flowers or small items.

This mode allows even closer shooting of the subject than Macro mode, magnifying the subject further. In addition, the background can be shot with different effects than when shooting in macro shooting mode.

When using the zoom in Macro mode, a yellow bar appears below the zoom bar to indicate the range in which you cannot use Macro mode to shoot the subject.

When the zoom level is in the yellow area, the shooting distance becomes that of normal mode, and

appears gray.

The zoom bar disappears after approx. 2 seconds.

*The shooting distance becomes that of normal mode. (As it is no longer macro mode, turns gray.)
