Macro Mode Shooting - Olympus CAMEDIA C-5050 Zoom Reference Manual

Macro mode shooting

The macro mode allows you to shoot at a distance of 20 cm to 80 cm (0.7 ft.
to 2.6 ft.) from your subject.
Focusing is usually slow when you get close to a subject. However, in the
mode focusing is performed quickly. When the optical zoom lever is at the
maximum wide position and you are as close as 20 cm (0.7 ft.) to your
subject, you can fill the entire frame with your subject.
