To enlarge the subject, you can take pictures from even closer up than the normal focus
range allows (up to 5 cm [0.17 feet] for max. W) by using ‘MACRO ( )’.

‘TELE MACRO function’
Useful for taking close-up pictures of, for example, birds that may fly away if approached,
or to blur background and emphasize subject.
‘TELE MACRO’ operates automatically when optical or extended optical zoom ratios are
set to maximum; focus can be aligned for distances as close as 1 m (3.28 feet).

Digital zoom may also be used.
Cannot be used in the following circumstances:
•
When not using ‘MACRO’ in (NORMAL
PICTURE mode) or (MOTION PICTURE mode)
• Scene modes other than ‘FOOD’,‘CANDLE
LIGHT’,‘BABY’,‘HIGH SENS.’ ,‘UNDERWATER’,
‘PET’, and ‘HI-SPEED BURST’.
is displayed when using ‘macro’ in (NORMALPICTURE mode) and (MOTION PICTURE mode).
We recommend using a tripod, the self-timer (P.42), and flash ‘FORCED FLASH
OFF’ (P.38).
Moving the camera after aligning the focus is likely to result in poorly focused pictures if
subject is close to camera, due to margin for focus alignment being severely reduced.
Resolution may be reduced around the edges of the picture.
When using (INTELLIGENT AUTO mode), macro recording can be activated by just
pointing the camera at subject. ( display)

Zoom ratios are approximate.
Ranges for focus alignment differ for scene modes. → P.46
Zoom ratios shown above vary when extended optical zoom is used.
Max. W: Zoom lever turned as far as possible to W side (no zoom)
Max. T: Zoom lever turned as far as possible to T side (maximum zoom ratio)
Accessible distance from subject depends on zoom ratio.
