Shooting Close-ups (Macro)

You can shoot an object at a close distance or even shoot extreme close-
ups of it. The focus range (the distance range from your subject) is
approximately 3 – 50 cm (1.2 in. – 1.6 ft.) from the end of the lens (when the
zoom lever is moved toward

j and held until the lens stops moving, which

is the maximum wide angle setting of the lens).

Shooting Far Away Subjects (Infinity)

When it is difficult to focus because your shot contains subjects that are both
near and far, you can change the focus range (the distance range from your
subject) to focus more reliably on the far away subjects only (3 m or more
away from your camera).
