FOR CLOSE SUBJECTS
• If the green ready lamp blinks rapidly and the
shutter locks, the subject is too close. Be sure
your camera-to-subject distance is at least
60cm (2.0 ft.) in the wide-angle setting or 55
cm (1.8 ft.) in the telephoto setting.
• When taking pictures at extremely close
distances, the green ready lamp may blink
slowly, but the focus may not be accurate.

CLOSE FRAMING GUIDE
If the subject is closer than 1.5m(4.9ft.), take the following steps:
1. Place the focus frame on the subject and
press the shutter-release button partway
down.
2. While pressing the shutter-release
button partway down, aim the camera
upward to recompose the subject under
the close-framing guide and take the
picture.
