Konica Minolta G530 instruction manual Macro Modes, Shooting Tips

MACRO MODES

Macro focusing is selected by pressing the left key of the controller (1). To select Super Macro, first zoom the lens to the maximum telephoto position and then select the appropriate mode with the controller. The active mode is displayed in the top left corner of the LCD monitor.

The minimum subject distance changes with the zoom position of the lens. Super Macro is only available at the telephoto position of the lens.

Wide-angle position	Telephoto position	Macro
5cm (2.0in) - ∞	50cm (19.7in) - ∞
Super Macro	20cm - 40cm	Super macro
–	(7.9in - 15.7in)

If the subject is outside the flash range (p. 47), overexposure may result. To prevent the flash from firing, set the flash mode to flash cancel (p. 28).

Always use the monitor to frame the image. The use of a tripod is recommended.

Shooting Tips

Camera shake is more noticeable with long exposures or close-up pictures. In these situations, place the camera on a tripod and make the exposure with the self-timer (p. 42) to prevent shaking the camera.
