Macro Mode Shooting - Olympus CAMEDIA C-5060 Wide Zoom Reference Manual

Macro mode shooting

Focusing is usually slow when you get close to a subject (20 cm to 80 cm)
(0.7 ft. to 2.6 ft.). However, in the & mode focusing is performed quickly.
When the optical zoom is at the maximum position and you are as close as
20 cm (0.7ft.) to your subject, you can fill the entire frame with a business
card-sized subject.
