When you shoot close to a subject
If you cannot get a sharp focus, push ZOOM toward the “W” side until the focus is
sharp. You can shoot a subject that is at least about 80 cm (about 2 feet 5/8 inch) away
from the lens surface in the telephoto position, or about 1 cm (about 1/2 inch) away in
the wide-angle position.
