s0013_e_00_unified.book Page 24 Monday, March 5, 2007 10:04 AM 2 Improving your shooting skills k Shooting guides Basic function guides Take pictures frequently to familiarize yourself with the camera. You can start off by taking pictures of your surrounding subjects like children, flowers or pets. And from the poor quality pictures you have taken, try to figure out what went wrong. The problems can often be resolved just by being more observant during shooting.
s0013_e_00_unified.book Page 25 Monday, March 5, 2007 10:04 AM Color: White balance There are other sources of lighting like tungsten light and fluorescent light, besides the sunlight, illuminating the subject. Unlike the sunlight, these lights contain particular colors. Hence, the same white object shot under different lighting conditions turns out in different colors. Even for sunlight, the outcome differs depending on the sky conditions, shadow of trees or buildings etc.
s0013_e_00_unified.book Page 26 Monday, March 5, 2007 10:04 AM Using white balance The color of water is different depending on whether it is a lake surrounded by forests or a tropical sea. To capture the subtle difference in color, try changing the white balance setting. It may be difficult to use auto settings to capture the subtle colors of a lake reflecting the leafy green of the trees or a sea surrounded by corals.
s0013_e_00_unified.book Page 27 Monday, March 5, 2007 10:04 AM Using exposure compensation When shooting a picture with background, select a background that will bring out the shape and color of the flower. A simple background will enhance the subject. When shooting bright and whitish flowers, adjust the exposure compensation toward – (minus) so that the flower stands out from the dark background.
s0013_e_00_unified.book Page 28 Monday, March 5, 2007 10:04 AM Taking night scene pictures There are different types of night scenes, ranging from the afterglow of a sunset to city lights at night. Sunset and fireworks sceneries are also a type of night scene. Using a tripod 2 A tripod is a must when shooting night scenes as the shutter speed is slow due to the darkness. Even when a tripod is not available, you should also place the camera on a stable ground such that it does not shake.

Set the mode dial to P. • When the shutter button is half-pressed, the shutter speed and aperture value are displayed on the viewfinder. Releasing the shutter button displays the shutter speed and aperture value on the control panel screen.
s0013_e_00_unified.book Page 31 Monday, March 5, 2007 10:04 AM A: Aperture priority shooting The camera sets the optimum shutter speed automatically for the aperture value you have selected. When you open the aperture (decrease the aperture value), the camera will focus within a shorter range (shallow depth of field) and produce a picture with a blurred background. When you close the aperture (increase the aperture value), the camera will focus within a longer range.
s0013_e_00_unified.book Page 32 Monday, March 5, 2007 10:04 AM S: Shutter priority shooting The camera sets the optimum aperture value automatically for the shutter speed you have selected. Set the shutter speed depending on the type of effect you want. A higher speed shutter allows you to capture a fast-moving subject without blur, and a slower shutter speed blurs a moving subject, creating a feeling of speed or motion. A fast shutter speed can freeze a fast action scene without any blur.
s0013_e_00_unified.book Page 33 Monday, March 5, 2007 10:04 AM M: Manual shooting Allows you to set the aperture and shutter speed manually. You can check how much it differs from the appropriate exposure by using the exposure level indicator. This mode gives you more creative control, allowing you to make whatever settings you like, regardless of the correct exposure. Bulb shooting is also possible, allowing you to take astronomical or fireworks pictures. g “Bulb shooting” (P.
s0013_e_00_unified.book Page 34 Monday, March 5, 2007 10:04 AM Noise in images During shooting at slow shutter speeds, noise may appear on-screen. These phenomena are caused when current is generated in those sections of the image pickup device that are not normally exposed to light, resulting in a rise in temperature in the image pickup device or image pickup device drive circuit. This can also occur when shooting with a high ISO setting in an environment exposed to heat.
