Shooting Close-Ups - Canon EOS Rebel T7 Manual De Instrucciones Básicas

4 Shooting Close-ups

When you want to shoot flowers or small things up close, use the <4>
(Close-up) mode. To make small things appear much larger, use a
macro lens (sold separately).
Shooting Tips
Use a simple background.

A simple background makes small objects such as flowers stand out
better.
Move in as close as possible to the subject.

Check the lens for its minimum focusing distance. Some lenses
have indications such as <MACRO 0.25m/0.8ft> on them. The lens
minimum focusing distance is measured from the <V> (focal
plane) mark on the top of the camera to the subject. If you are too
close to the subject, the focus indicator <o> will blink.
If you use flash and the bottom part of the picture comes out
unnaturally dark, move away from the subject and try again.
With a zoom lens, use the telephoto end.

If you have a zoom lens, using the telephoto end will make the
subject look larger.
If necessary, the built-in flash will fire automatically.
