Like on the S10 and many compact cameras the P10 28-300 mm's macro mode at the wide end of the lens allows you to focus so close that it almost becomes impractical as the camera/lens ends up shading the image area (we use our backlit ...
Macro Focusing Often refers to the capability of certain zoom lenses in which the lens group moves, enabling the lens to focus closer than the normal close-up focusing distance.

Since DOF is so small, it's usually a good idea to use manual focusing for 1x macro shots so you get the DOF exactly where you want it.
MACRO FOCUSING & DEPTH OF FIELD

You can buy convenient adjustable rail systems (macro focus rails with one or two rails) that slide the camera back and forth for this type of precise macro focussing.
When you're dealing with closeup work the tiniest motion is magnified.
The best way to make framing and focusing easy is to use a geared macro focusing rail. You mount your camera on the focusing rail and then mount this device with your camera/lens attached on your tripod.
the most daunting task I have ever experienced with my 60mm Macro focusing on the right spot and keeping the focus as it is. At extreme end of micro, when you are 1:1 on your subject, the DoF is unimaginably narrow. The light is also a great concern.
5 Series 1 Macro Focusing Auto Zoom. I had just picked one up, complete with original Series 1 logo cap, for a whopping $35. Guess what? It still works great.

These lenses obtain razor-sharp focus for subjects within the macro focus distance, but lose their ability for sharp focus at other distances.
