The flash range varies depending on the sensitivity setting (ISO Speed). For details, see page 41.
Taking Close-ups With Macro Mode
Macro mode allows you to focus on subjects between 2 and 19.6 inches (5 and 50 cm) away from
the camera. Use of the flash is not recommended for macro close-ups, so make sure you have
adequate lighting. For best results, use a tripod when shooting in macro mode.
1. Turn the Mode dial to automatic or manual mode.
2. Move the joystick to l to switch to macro mode.
3. Center your subject in the middle of the square focus frame on the LCD screen.
4. Press and hold the shutter button halfway down. The focus frame turns green and the focus
is set. If you want to reframe your picture, move the camera until the photo you want appears
on the LCD screen.
5. Press the shutter button all the way down. The camera beeps as it captures the image.
