*To avoid camera shake, mount the camera securely onto a steady tripod.

<Combined Modes>

When shooting in the macro mode, pressing the “ ” button will permit macro flash photography.

Take care, however, since very close subjects may receive excessive exposure. In this case, use the exposure compensation function to compensate the exposure.

Since parallax occurs when using the optical viewfinder for macro photography, we recommend that you use the LCD monitor to compose your photographs when shooting extreme closeups.

*Parallax refers to the difference between what is seen in the viewfinder and the actual image recorded through the camera’s taking lens.
