If you are shooting a subject at close range, and if the subject cannot be easily focused within the normal shooting range, switching from the normal mode to the [Macro] ( ) mode will make it easier to focus on the subject.
IMPORTANT
- In the following example procedure, the camera's shooting mode has been set to [Program AE] ().
- If the flash fires, vignetting may occur.
The shooting distance of each [Focusing Range] and the shooting modes in which [Focusing Range] settings cannot be made
1. Press the <Power> button to turn the camera on.
2. Press the <Macro> ( ) button.
3. Press the [ ], [ ] buttons or turn the [ ] dial to choose [Macro] ( ), and then press the <FUNC./SET> [ ] button.
Once the setting is complete, the [Macro] ( ) icon is displayed on the LCD Monitor.
REFERENCE
- Try attaching the camera to a tripod and shooting in [Self-Timer] to prevent the camera from moving and blurring the image.
