Macro

Two macro modes are available: Super Macro and standard macro. Super Macro allows the camera to focus as close as 1cm (0.4 in.) from the front of the lens. When Super Macro is selected, the lens automatically zooms to a specific focal- length position and cannot be changed. Standard macro allows the zoom to be used. The minimum focus distance changes with focal length, see below.

Press the macro button (1) to select the macro mode. The

modes cycle among standard macro, Super Macro, and off. Super-macro indicator

The following chart lists the Super Macro and standard macro ranges. All distances are measured from the front of the lens.
