NOTE
• The built-in flash which is in the fill-in flash mode can be used in the
super macro mode. However, the lens can cast a shadow over the
subject or the subject might not otherwise be properly illuminated.
• In the super macro mode, you can get as close as 60 cm (2 ft.) to
2 cm (0.8 in.) of subjects, but subjects closer than 0.3 m (1 ft.) will
appear to be out of focus in the "TELE" mode. Use the edge of the
"WIDE" mode.
• Outlines of subjects may be awry when you get as close as 2 cm
(0.8 in.) of subjects.
• It takes more time than usual to focus when you are in the Macro
mode right after taking pictures of subjects at a distance.
• Using the optional Wide conversion lens (WCON-08) or Macro con-
version lens (MCON-40) in the super macro mode may not achieve
sufficient effect.
