Panasonic DMC-G2K operating instructions Close-Up, Flower, Food, Objects, Creative CLOSE-UP

Advanced (Recording pictures)

[CLOSE-UP]

This mode allows you to take close-up pictures of a subject, e.g. when taking pictures of flowers.

(The distance from the subject when you take close-up pictures differs depending on the lens you are using.)

[FLOWER]

Flowers outdoors are recorded with natural colors in macro settings. The guide lines are displayed. (P65)

[FOOD]

You can take pictures of food with a natural hue without being affected by the ambient light in restaurants etc.

•When the AF Mode is set to [š], it will switch to [Ø].

[OBJECTS]

You can take clear and vivid pictures of accessories or small objects in a collection.

[CREATIVE CLOSE-UP]

You can change the degree of blurring of the background by changing the aperture value in the macro settings. (P94)

Note

•During motion picture recording, the motion picture will reflect the settings for each mode with [FLOWER], [FOOD] and [OBJECTS]. [CREATIVE CLOSE-UP] is suitable for near distance motion picture recording.

•We recommend using a tripod and the self-timer.

•We recommend setting the flash to [Œ] when you take pictures at close range.

•Refer to “About the focus distance reference mark” on P84 for the focus range.

•When a subject is close to the camera, the effective focus range is significantly narrowed. Therefore, if the distance between the camera and the subject is changed after focusing on the subject, it may become difficult to focus on it again.

•Close-up Mode gives priority to a subject close to the camera, so it takes longer to focus on the further subjects.

•When you take pictures at close range, the resolution of the periphery of the picture may decrease slightly. This is not a malfunction.

•If the lens becomes dirty with fingerprints or dust, the lens may not be able to focus on the subject correctly.

•The initial setting for the AF Mode is [Ø].
