  1. Nice macro, Wildflower, I did not know your camera had that capability. Posted 9 years ago
    1. Thanks, yes it does, in the super macro mode the shooting range starts from 3 cm. It uses the zoom to magnify the object. This one was big so I didn't use the macro mode but it is good for smaller insects and flowers. Posted 9 years ago
