Photograph flowers, insects, and other small objects at close

range.

• Macro mode (A 36) is enabled and the camera

automatically zooms to the closest position at which it can

focus.

• The closest distance at which the camera can focus varies

depending on the zoom position. When the zoom is at a position where F and the

zoom indicator glow green (to the left of G), the camera can focus on subjects as close

as 2 cm (0.8 in.) from the lens.

At the maximum wide-angle position, the camera can focus on subjects as close as 1 cm

(0.4 in.) from the lens.

• AF area mode is set to Manual and the focus area in which the camera focuses can be

selected (A 50). Press the k button and then move the focus area by rotating the

rotary multi selector or by pressing H, I, J, or K. Press the k button again to lock the

selected focus area. Flash mode 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 the shutter-release button is pressed halfway to

lock the focus.

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

(A 166) is enabled and hold the camera steadily.
