This mode is useful when taking pictures of food.
Macro mode (

automatically zooms to the closest position at which it can
focus.

The closest possible shooting distance may vary according to

zoom position. The camera can focus on the subject at a
distance of 2 cm (0.8 in.) at the zoom position at which F and
the zoom indicator glow green (the zoom indicator is positioned to the left of K). At the
widest zoom position, the camera can focus on a subject as close as 1 cm (0.4 in.) to the
lens.

Hue can be adjusted in the range of the slider displayed at

left in the monitor. Press the rotary multi selector

H to

make the image more reddish, or

I to make it more bluish.

The selected hue adjustment setting is stored in the
camera’s memory even after the camera is turned off, and
reapplied the next time food scene mode is selected.

A 49). Choose the focus

area in which the camera focuses. Press the

k button and

then rotate the rotary multi selector, or press

H, I, J, or

K, to select a different focus area. Press the k button again to lock the selected focus
area. Hue and exposure compensation settings can be adjusted and the self-timer can be
enabled while the focus area is locked.

The camera focuses continuously until focus is locked by pressing the shutter-release

button halfway.

As pictures are easily affected by camera shake, be sure that Vibration reduction
