[MACRO]

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

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

[NORMAL MACRO]

Priority is given to focusing on a subject close to the camera.

[I.ISO MACRO]¢

The camera senses the movement of the subject and sets the optimum ISO sensitivity to prevent subject blur. (Intelligent ISO sensitivity control)

[CREATIVE MACRO]

You can change the aperture value (P41) with the [NORMAL MACRO] setting.

¢Intelligent ISO sensitivity control is activated when taking pictures with Live View only.

We recommend using a tripod and the self-timer in macro mode.

When a subject is close to the camera, the effective focus range (depth of field) 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.

If the distance between the camera and the subject is beyond the focus range of the camera, the picture may not be properly focused even if the focus indication lights.

If [LIVE VIEW AF] is set to contrast AF when taking pictures with Live View, priority is given to a subject close to the camera so it takes longer to focus when taking pictures of a distant subject.

The available flash range is about 2.0 m (6.6 feet) to 5.5 m (18.0 feet) (Wide). (When the ISO sensitivity is set to

[AUTO].) We recommend setting the flash

to Forced OFF [] when you take pictures at close range.

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.

Digital zoom cannot be used.
