W). This may be remedied by using a little zoom.If flash is to be emitted, flash type marks (e.g. ) will turn red when shutter button ispressed halfway.No pictures may be taken if these marks (e.g. ) are flashing (flash is charging).Insufficient flash reach may be due to inadequately set exposure or white balance.Flash effect may not be fully achieved with high shutter speeds.Flash charging may take time if battery is low, or if using flash repeatedly.When you want to enlarge the subject, setting to ‘AF MACRO ( )’ enables you to takeimages at an even closer distance than the normal focus range (up to 3 cm for max. W).Display ‘MACRO MODE’Select ‘AF MACRO’Displayed for approx. 5 sec.Take an imagedisplayTaking close-up images without standing close to subject‘TELE MACRO’ functionUseful for taking close-up pictures of, for example, birds that may fly away if approached,or to blur background and emphasize subject.‘TELE MACRO’ operates automatically when optical or extended zoom opticalratios are close to the maximum T setting (10x or above for optical zoom). Thefocus can be aligned for distances as close as 1m.Turn tomax. Tchanges toDigital zoom may also be used.This function also operates when taking pictures inthe following scene modes.‘FOOD’, ‘CANDLE LIGHT’, ‘BABY’, ‘HIGH SENS.’,‘UNDERWATER’, ‘PET’, ‘HI-SPEED BURST’,‘FLASH BURST’, ‘PIN HOLE’, ‘FILM GRAIN’Focus may take time to align forsubjects over 50 cm away.When using (INTELLIGENTAUTO mode), macro recordingcan be activated by just pointingthe camera at subject.( display)AF MACRO automaticallyactivates when AF MODE is setto (AF tracking).
