6 cm to 50 cm (2.3 in. to 1.6 ft.) from the camera.
Select the “ON” setting and then press the
“MENU/OK” button. The “

Macro mode, the field visible through the
viewfinder does not match the field actually
photographed because the viewfinder and
lens are in different positions. Accordingly,
you should use the LCD monitor to take
pictures in Macro mode.
