Taking Close-up Pictures
When using macro, you should maintain a distance of 8 to 31 inches
from the subject. While it is possible to take macro photos from any
distance, shots taken at less than 8 inches or farther than 31 inches
are likely to be out of focus or poorly exposed.
Minimum distance: approximately 8 inches
Telephoto: If you wish to further enlarge the image, push the zoom
lever toward T (telephoto).
