Turning The Flash On; Shooting Close-Ups (Macro) - Canon Powershot SD940 IS Digital Elph User Manual

Turning the Flash On

You can make the flash fire every time you shoot. At maximum wide angle,
the flash range is approximately 30 cm – 4.0 m (12 in. – 13 ft.), and at
maximum telephoto, it is 50 cm – 2.0 m (1.6 – 6.6 ft.)

Shooting Close-ups (Macro)

You can shoot an object at a close distance or even shoot extreme close-
ups of it. The shooting range is approximately 3 – 50 cm (1.2 in. – 1.6 ft.)
from the end of the lens (when the zoom lever is pushed to maximum j).
How can I take better close-ups?
You are recommended to attach the camera to a tripod and shoot in Î, to
•
prevent the camera from moving and blurring the image (p. 75).
•
You can reduce the AF frame size when you want to focus on a specific
portion of the subject (p. 80).
The edges of the image may darken if the flash fires.
