Using the macro mode
Use the macro mode to shoot a close-up of the subject, such as flowers or insects.
The effective range is between 30cm and 80cm.
1. Open the lens cover, turn the mode dial to
the mode, and power on the camera.
2. Move the focus switch located on the front
side of the camera to the position.
The icon appears on the LCD monitor
and status LCD.
3. Compose the picture.
4. Press the shutter button.
To disable macro photography, slide the focus switch back to normal.
• When shooting a close-up in macro mode, use the image LCD monitor to compose your shot,
avoiding the off-center parallax phenomenon.
• There is not a distinct point (subject range) at which normal mode is favored over macro mode;
take in image an both optical modes and compare the results.
• After a macro shot is taken DO NOT FORGET to reset the lens to the normal position.
Using the flash
The flash is designed to function automatically
when lighting conditions warrant the use of flash.
You can take an image using a flash mode suit-
able to your circumstances. If you change the flash
mode, the camera will retain that setting even if
the camera is turned off.
1. Open the lens cover, turn the mode dial to
the mode, and power on the camera.
2. Press the button located on top of the came-
ra repeatedly until your desired flash mode
appears.
3. Compose the picture and press the shutter
button.
