NOTE
•When proper focusing is not possible because the subject is closer than the Auto Focus range, the camera will switch to the Macro Focus range (which does not include the Super Macro range) automatically (Auto Macro).
•When proper focusing is not possible because the subject is further than the macro range (which does not include the Super Macro range), the camera will switch to the Auto Focus range automatically (Auto Macro).
•Auto Macro can be used when recording snapshots only.
•Use of the flash together with Macro Focus can cause the light of the flash to become blocked, which may result in unwanted lens shadows in your image.
•Whenever you perform an optical zoom operation while shooting with Auto Focus, Macro Focus, or Manual Focus, a value will appear on the monitor screen to tell you the focus range, as shown below.
Example: oo cm to 9
*oo is the actual focusing range value.
*Products marketed in some geographic areas display inches and feet.
•Always be sure to select Auto Focus (AF) as the focus mode whenever using face detection (page 80).
•The following functions are disabled when shooting with Super Macro.
– Zoom (both optical and digital)
– Auto Macro
– Flash
– Flash CS
•The large zoom factor capabilities of this camera can result in images being out of focus if the camera is moved while shooting with fixed focus. Whenever possible, mount the camera on a tripod or secure it using some other means before focusing. If the image is out of focus, either refocus or change to manual focus (MF) to adjust focus as required.
