Shooting Close-Ups (Macro-Mode)

Using the N (Macro) button allows you to take a tight close-up (Macro Photo).

It is good for shooting small subjects because you can get up to one centimeter (1/2 inch) away.

1. With the camera ready to shoot, press the N button.

N is displayed momentarily in a large size at the center of the LCD monitor and then at the upper part.

2. Compose your picture and half- press the shutter release button.

3. Press the shutter release button all the way.

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

Note

When using the zoom, you can shoot close-ups within the following distances from the front of the lens:

Wide-Angle

About 1 cm from the front of the lens

Shooting range: Approx. 28 mm x 21 mm

 

 

 

Telephoto

About 14 cm from the front of the lens

Shooting range: Approx. 45 mm x 34 mm

 

 

(when digital zoom is not used)

 

 

 

 

 

Shooting range: Approx. 12.5 mm x 9.4 mm

 

 

(when 3.6x digital zoom is used)

 

 

 

The AF target shift function enables you to lock the focus for macro shooting only by button operation without moving the camera. This function is useful for shooting on a tripod. (P.87)

To take a further close-up picture in Macro shooting mode, use Zoom Macro of Scene Mode. (P.38)
