Focusing on close-up subjects (Macro mode)
Focusing
Use Macro mode to shoot close-up subjects.
When the camera is set to telephoto (at the T setting), you can shoot at dis-
tances of as little as 7.9" so that a business card fills the entire frame.
Because the area actually photographed differs slightly from the area visible
through the viewfinder in this mode, use the monitor as the viewfinder.
Press the (Spot/Macro)
button until " " (Macro
mode) appears on the control
panel.
● To cancel Macro mode, press
the (Spot/Macro) but-
ton until the icon on the con-
trol panel disappears.
Take the shot.
Working range
7.9" to 31.5"
