I especially love it because, for the first time ever, I own a camera that does macro. And boy, does it do it well:
(Close-up of a sand dollar: click to see how close that close-up really is.)

How do you get it to focus on macro? My camera (Canon S3IS)supposedly has macro too but the pictures never turn out. they are always out of focus. I read the directions. Didn't help.
I looked up your camera, and it looks like it focuses in the same way that my camera does: you just hold down the shutter half-way before clicking. The display should then tell you if it's found something to focus on, or whether it's too wobbly or needs the flash. It also looks like your camera has both macro and super macro.
When I went to the family farm, I took about a million macro pics of flowers and bugs. It's addictive and also totally awesome.
soooo jealous of your macro-bility, that is awesome! but does it do what you wanted, ie, take pictures of documents?
It does a good job of that. And it's quite good without the flash, especially with its special "ISO 3200" setting.
Congrats on the new camera!! Isn't it fun?
