Shooting Close-up

For close-up shots, use the macro mode which allows you to bring the camera as

 

close as 20 cm (8 in.) from the subject. For example, you could accurately capture the

details of a flower’s petals, pistils, and stamens.

To set the camera in the macro mode, press and hold down the macro button, turn the main dial or sub dial until you see the macro markin the control panel, and then take the picture.

Shot in macro TELE mode

Note

With the camera set for TELE, you can bring the camera as close as 20 cm (8 in.) from the subject to photograph an area about the size of a business card, or approximately 76 x 57 mm (3 x 2.3 in.). (42)

There is a greater possibility of camera shake spoiling a picture, so try to steady the camera as much as possible, or use a tripod.

Use as fast a shutter speed as possible to prevent the wind or other movement from causing the subject to blur.

If you use the flash in some situations, the lens barrel could cause a shadow in the picture.

For close up shots, you may find it convenient to pull out the monitor and compose the picture in the monitor.
