Taking Pictures
– - 19 - –
Using Macro Mode
Your camera is equipped with a macro function that allows you to focus on very close
subjects. In macro mode you can focus on subjects 10 cm from the lens when in the
maximum wide angle (zoomed out) setting and 50 cm in the maximum telephoto
(zoomed in) setting.
When in Photo mode, press the MACRO
button on the back of the camera to enter
Macro mode. The macro mode icon appears
on the LCD screen when in Macro mode.
To leave Macro Mode, press the MACRO button again.
Using the Self-Timer
Your camera has a self-timer that allows you to take pictures of yourself. When the self-
timer function is enabled, there is a 10 second delay between the shutter being pressed
and the picture being taken.
1. To enable the self-timer function, press the
self-timer button until the self-timer symbol
appears on the LCD display.
2. Place the camera in a stable position,
preferably on a tripod.
3. Compose your shot as normal.
4. When you are happy with the picture, press
the shutter button.
5. The camera takes a picture 10 seconds after
you press the shutter button. You will hear
some beeps, indicating that the self-timer is
active.
