Area of image actually shot
±
With the viewfinder, the
area of the image
actually shot is larger
than the area observed
in the viewfinder.
±
When the working
distance is short as
shown in the figure, the
area of the image
actually shot may
slightly be different
from the area observed
in the viewfinder.
For best results, use the
Macro mode (
Page 60)
when the subject is located at
a distance of less than 0.5
meter/1.6 feet from the
camera. Shooting is possible
without using the Macro
mode, but in some cases
correct focus and exposure
may not be achieved.
