Do not touch or look at the flash (P.12) from close distances (i.e. a few cm).
Do not use the flash at close distances to other subjects (heat/light may damage
subject).
Flash settings may be changed when changing recording mode.
Scene mode flash settings are restored to default when scene mode is changed.
Edges of picture may become slightly dark if using flash at short distances without using
zoom (close to max. W). This may be remedied by using a little zoom.
If flash is to be emitted, flash type marks (e.g. ) will turn red when shutter button is
pressed halfway.
No pictures may be taken if these marks (e.g. ) are flashing (flash is charging).
Insufficient flash reach may be due to inadequately set exposure or white balance.
Flash effect may not be fully achieved with high shutter speeds.
Flash charging may take time if battery is low, or if using flash repeatedly.
When you want to enlarge the subject, setting to ‘AF MACRO (
)’ enables you to take
images at an even closer distance than the normal focus range (up to 3 cm (0.10 feet) for
max. W).

‘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 zoom optical
ratios are close to the maximum T setting (10x or above for optical zoom). The
focus can be aligned for distances as close as 1m (3.28 feet).
Turn to
max. T

Digital zoom may also be used.
This function also operates when taking pictures in
the following scene modes.
‘FOOD’, ‘CANDLE LIGHT’, ‘BABY’, ‘HIGH SENS.’,
‘UNDERWATER’, ‘PET’, ‘HI-SPEED BURST’,
‘FLASH BURST’, ‘PIN HOLE’, ‘FILM GRAIN’
Focus may take time to align for
subjects over 50 cm (1.64 feet)
away.
When using (INTELLIGENT
AUTO mode), macro recording
can be activated by just pointing
the camera at subject.

AF MACRO automatically
activates when AF MODE is set
to (AF tracking). ( is not
displayed.)
