Panasonic DMC-FZ20GN User Manual

Recording pictures (advanced)

This mode allows you to take pictures 
closely focusing on the subject. (e.g. When 
taking pictures of flowers.)
You can take pictures with the lens at a 
distance of up to 5 cm (Wide) from the 
subject. 

∫ Focus range 
• Normal 

• Macro mode [

] 

• We recommend using a tripod.
• When the camera lens is at a distance 

beyond the available range from the 
subject, the subject may not be focused 
even if the focus indication lights.

• You can also set the Programme shift. (P33)
• The available flash range is about 

30 cm – 7 m. (This is applied when you set 
the ISO sensitivity to [AUTO]. However, 
the flash mode should be set to the mode 
except Slow sync./Red-eye reduction 
[

].)

You can record motion images with audio.

• [10fps]:

Recording motion images for a longer 
time is available though the quality will 
be less than the quality recorded at 
[30fps]. The file size is smaller, so the 
files are suitable to be attached to 
e-mails.

• [30fps]:

The motion of the recorded image is 
smooth, but the file size is large.

• fps (frame per second); This refers to 

the number of frames used in 1 second.

• Close the menu by pressing the shutter 

button halfway or the [MENU] button 
after finishing the setting.
