Basic Photography and Playback: A (Auto) Mode Macro Mode Macro mode is used for taking pictures of objects as close as 1 cm (0.4 in.). Note that the flash may be unable to light the entire subject at distances of less than 50 cm (1 ft. 8 in.). 1 Press the rotary multi selector p (macro mode). The macro mode menu is displayed. 2 Use the rotary multi selector to choose ON and press the k button. The macro mode icon (F) is displayed. If a setting is not applied by pressing the k button within a few seconds, the selection will be canceled. Macro mode 3 Rotate the zoom control to frame the picture. The closest distance at which the camera can focus varies depending on the zoom position. The camera can focus 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 subjects as close as 1 cm (0.4 in.) to the lens. C Autofocus When using A (auto) mode, if Autofocus mode (A 52) is set to Full-time AF, the camera focuses continuously until focus is locked when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. Therefore, the sound of lens drive movement can be heard. When using other shooting modes, Full-time AF is turned on automatically when macro mode is turned on. C The Macro Mode Setting The macro mode setting applied in A (auto) mode is stored in the camera's memory even after the 34 camera is turned off, and reapplied the next time A (auto) mode is selected.
