Taking Close-up pictures
This mode allows you to take close-up
pictures of the subject, e.g. When taking
pictures of flowers.
You can take pictures approaching the
subject at a distance up to 5 cm (0.16 feet)
from the lens by rotating the zoom lever
upmost to Wide (1×).

Select [AFw] with the focus
switch.

n Focus range
• Normal
• [AFw]
• Use a tripod and the self-timer (P47) for
best results.
• When the subject is close to the camera,
the effective focus range (depth of field) is
significantly narrowed. Therefore, you will
have difficulty in focusing on the subject if
the distance between the camera and the
subject is changed after focusing on the
subject.
• When the camera lens is at a distance
beyond the available range from the
subject, the subject may not be focused
even if the focus indication lights.
• AF Macro mode gives priority to a subject
close to the camera. Therefore it takes
longer for the camera to focus in macro
mode than in standard AF mode [AF]
when the subject is 50 cm (1.64 feet) or
more away.
• The available flash range is about 60 cm
(1.97 feet) to 4.9 m (16.08 feet) (Wide).
(This is applied when you set the ISO
sensitivity to [AUTO].) We recommend
setting the flash to Forced OFF [v]
when you take pictures at close range.
• It is normal for the resolution of the edges
of pictures taken with [AFw] at short
distances to be lower.
