Super Macro

Super Macro fixes optical zoom at a position that allows you to shoot from the closest distance to the subject. The result is closer and larger subject images.

NOTE

Zoom is fixed while Super Macro is selected, so no zoom operation is performed when you slide the zoom controller.

To focus with manual focus

1. On the monitor screen, compose the image so the subject you want to focus on is within the yellow boundary.

2. Watching the image on the monitor screen use

 

[4] and [6] to adjust focus.

 

• At this time the image that is within the boundary will

Yellow boundary

enlarge and fill the monitor screen, which aids in

 

focusing. If you do not perform any operation for two seconds while the enlarged image is displayed, the screen in step 1 will re-appear.

NOTE

An Auto Macro feature detects how far the subject is from the lens and automatically selects either Macro Focus or Auto Focus accordingly.

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.

40
