Macro mode may be its own setting or sometimes it can be a supplemental setting that can be used in conjunction with almost any other setting. When it's a supplemental setting, it will have its own button, rather than being on the same dial as all the other preset scene modes. Macro button Macro mode is really characterized by how close the subjects are and how much of the frame they fill. Generally speaking, there i
s only one subject (or a tight cluster of subjects) which fills most of the frame and is 0'-6' (0m-2m) away. For that reason, focusing starts at the closest end of the lens' focus range. Cameras and lenses vary in their close focusing ability. Some can focus just inches away while others may not do well with subjects closer than two arm lengths. The latter is especially true with focus-free cameras.
