Shooting Close-ups (Macro Photo)

Using the N (Macro) button allows you to take a tight close-up (Macro Photo). Use this button when the lens-to-subject distance is 1-60 cm (wide angle). This feature is good for shooting flowers, insects and other small subjects, because you can get a close-up of one centimeter (1/2 inch) from the subject.

To shoot close-ups, follow the steps below.

Turn the Mode Dial to 5(Shooting Mode).

Press the N (Macro) button.

The Macro symbol is displayed on the left side of the screen.

Bring the lens close to the subject and press the shutter button.

• When using the zoom, you can shoot close-ups up to the following distances.

G4

In Wide-Angle (W): Closest 1cm

In Telephoto (T): Closest 16cm

G4wide

Closest 1cm

In Telephoto (T): Closest 4cm

To get out of Macro Mode, press the N(Macro) button again.

During Macro Shooting, the Viewfinder cannot be used. Use the LCD Monitor.

For how to use the Wide-angle Zoom, see P.44.
