macro mode
Extreme detail setting
Macro mode is a camera setting for photographing subjects at very close range—flowers, insects, text, small objects.
The mode adjusts focus to work at distances where normal settings would blur: Switch to macro mode to get that shot of the bee on the flower.
The flower icon on cameras typically indicates macro mode.
