Turning the Flash On

You can make the flash fire every time you shoot. The flash range is
approximately 30 cm – 4.0 m (12 in. – 13.1 ft.) from the end of the lens
(when the zoom button is pressed toward j and held until the lens stops
moving, which is the maximum wide angle setting of the lens), and 30 cm –
2.0 m (12 in. – 6.6 ft.) (when the zoom button is pressed toward i and held
until the lens stops moving, which is the maximum telephoto setting of the
lens).

Shooting Close-ups (Macro)

You can shoot an object at a close distance or even shoot extreme close-
ups of it. The shooting range (focusing zone) is approximately 3 – 60 cm

toward j and held until the lens stops moving, which is the maximum wide
angle setting of the lens).
The edges of the image may darken if the flash fires.
