8: 4 Shooting Close-Ups - Canon EOS 6D Mark II Mode D'emploi

8: 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. 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 and focus cannot be achieved, the focus indicator <o> will
blink.
With a zoom lens, use the telephoto end.
If you have a zoom lens, using the telephoto end will make the
subject look larger.
