If you are shooting a subject at a close distance, and if the subject cannot be easily focused within the normal shooting range, switching the normal mode to the [Macro] (

) mode will make it easier to focus on the subject.
NOTE
The distance of each focusing range is as follows (from the end of the lens).
- [Normal] (
) :1 cm (0.4 in.) - infinity (W)*, 30 cm (12 in.) - infinity (T)**
- [Macro] (
) : 1 cm (0.4 in.) - 50 cm (1.6 ft.) (W)*, 30 cm (12 in.) - 50 cm (1.6 ft.) (T)**
* (W) : When the camera is at maximum wide angle with the <Zoom Button> pressed and <Wide Angle> (

) selected (at the Wide-end).
** (T) : When the camera is at maximum telephoto with the <Zoom Button> pressed and <Telephoto> (

) selected (at the Tele-end).
