b
to "
" Suppressed Flash mode.
●
Effective Photography Range:
Approx. 8 cm to 13 cm (3.1 in. to 5.1 in.).
●
!
Using the camera width (about 10 cm or 4 in.) as a
guide, ensure that the distance to the subject is
between 8 cm and 13 cm (3.1 in to 5.1 in.). The camera
will not focus on subjects outside this focal range.
●
!
To use the flash, select the "
Slow Synchro setting in the menu screen (➡P.37,
39). However, you may not be able to obtain the
correct brightness (exposure) for your shot.
●
!
When shooting in dark conditions, use a tripod to
prevent camera shake.
●

The LCD monitor automatically switches on.
●

You cannot switch the LCD monitor off.
If you use the viewfinder to take a picture in
Macro mode, the field visible through the
viewfinder does not match the field actually
photographed because the viewfinder and lens
are in different positions. Accordingly, you
should use the LCD monitor to take pictures in
Macro mode.
