This mode allows you to take close-up pictures of a subject, e.g. when taking pictures of
flowers.
[FLOWER]
Flowers outdoor are recorded with natural colours in macro settings.
[FOOD]
You can take pictures of food with a natural hue without being affected by the ambient
light in restaurants etc.
[OBJECTS]
You can take clear and vivid pictures of accessories or small objects in a collection.
[CREATIVE CLOSE-UP]
You can change the degree of blurring of the background by changing the aperture
value in the macro settings.
Note
We recommend using a tripod and the self-timer.
•
We recommend setting the flash to [Œ] when you take pictures at close range.
•
The range in which the focus is adjusted is shown below.
•
[FOOD]: 1 cm (wide)/2 m (Tele) to
–
[FLOWER]/[OBJECTS]/[CREATIVE CLOSE-UP]: 1 cm (wide)/1 m (Tele) to
–
If the distance between the camera and the subject is beyond the focus range of the camera,
•
the picture may not be properly focused even if the focus indication lights.
When a subject is close to the camera, the effective focus range is significantly narrowed.
•
Therefore, if the distance between the camera and the subject is changed after focusing on the
subject, it may become difficult to focus on it again.
Close-up mode gives priority to a subject close to the camera. Therefore, if the subject is 50 cm
•
or more from the camera, achieving focus may take some time.
When you take pictures at close range, the resolution of the periphery of the picture may
•
decrease slightly. This is not a malfunction.
If the lens becomes dirty with fingerprints or dust, the lens may not be able to focus on the
•
subject correctly.
