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

2.Touch “W”.

Yellow boundary

3.Watching the image on the monitor screen, touch “+” (closer) or “–” (further) to adjust focus.

At this time the image that is within the boundary will enlarge and fill the monitor screen, which aids in focusing. The camera will return to the screen in step 1 if you touch “T” or if you do not perform any operation for about three seconds.

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.
