Does the camera have macro settings for close ups and action settings for multi-picture shots?

It has a macro setting for closer up pic but if you true super close macro you will need to use a camera with interchangeable lens. You can set it to continue to take pics as long as you hold down the button.

Yes the DMC-FZ70 is very capable at macro shots. It has a button on the back to switch the autofocus from normal to macro, enabling the camera to take pictures as close as 1 cm at the wide angle focal length! Also in the iA (intelligent auto) mode, the camera automatically detects when the subject is close enough to require the macro setting and switches it to macro, then automatically switches it back to normal when the camera is moved further away from the subject. You can also select a macro focus function in the manual, aperture priority, shutter speed priority, and program modes, and can select between autofocus macro and macro zoom. I have taken pictures with the camera lens practically touching the subject in all kinds of lighting conditions and they have turned out great. Of course the autofocus at such range has a severely reduced margin for focus alignment so you have to give it a few seconds to focus and then be careful not to move the camera again before the shot. Probably should switch off the flash (simple to do on this camera) and perhaps use a tripod and self timer if the subject is not well lit. To boot the camera accepts an adapter and close-up lens but I'm not sure why you'd need them given how great the macro works.

This is a great camera but there are so many features I don't know them all yet. I'm almost certain I remember reading that it has a self-timer, but I haven't used that so I don't know if it applies to more than one pic.

If you don't want the camera to decide things for you then you have to avoid some of the automatic and scene modes. In P, Tv, Av, and M modes you will have the option of selecting macro. In Auto mode the camera decides for you. That's what auto means - you lose many of the options.

It has a good close up setting - I use it to take macro shots and they turn out well. The details are sharp and clear for my use but the macros my daughter takes with her inter-changeable lens camera would fall under the category of professional.

There are special effects on the camera and I believe it does include macro.

Hi. The only "macro" I see the camara has is accesible from the visible botton in the back ot the camara. I don't speak english very well. I can send you the Guide to your e-mail if you want...

I have not tried any action shots. Sorry. Try looking thru the manual. All of my pictures-are still shots-using the 14X optical zoom

Macro only. I feel it's to harsh for portraits. Makes it look like a pop up flash

It does on certain settings. It has some intelligent lighting/focus settings and an anti motion setting that takes rapid fire frames without much distortion. It has produced some gorgeous photos. However, if you are wanting to shoot exclusively manual, you may not be thrilled with its recovery speed.

If it can, I have not found that setting yet. I recommend the Cannon Rebel Xti. I use it at work and it is amazing. I set it on action mode and you can snap away, just hold the button! And it has settings to change the aperture for different lighting.

I've not tried it for macro, so can't help you there, My friend has mine in Europe now so I can't try it. Maybe if you google the question, they will know or the manual may pop-up. Aside from my SLR, this takes great telephotos.

Yes it does. Sometimes I have to adjust the settings but overall I do pretty good with my pics.

No, it does have a good selection of modes and if you need a "sports" for fast action you can go into the setup mode and manually change the shutter speed, The camera takes very good pictures. My only complaint is that the camera body is made out of plastic and feels cheap.
