It's considered to be "Super Macro" mode and the quality is better than a
lot of digital slr's.

The distance I don't exactly recall but I know someone who uses SLR's
professionally but uses the Olympus C-5050 when he needs to use a macro
function.

It has to be the best standard type macro on the market........if that's
important to you and let's face it......if you grow orchids then it is
important.
