Shooting tips When you are unsure of how to take a picture that you envision, refer to the information below. Focusing Focusing on the subject. • Taking a picture of a subject not in the center of the monitor. g P. 34 After focusing on an object at the same distance as the subject, compose the shot, and take the picture. • Set [AF Mode] to [Face/iESP]. g P. 47 • Taking a picture in [AF Tracking] mode. g P. 47 The camera tracks the subject movement automatically to focus on it continuously.
Camera shake Taking pictures without camera shake. • Taking pictures using [Image Stabilizer]. g P. 48 The camera detects camera movement to reduce the blur even if the ISO sensitivity is not increased. This function is also effective when taking pictures at a high zoom magnification. • Shooting movies using [IS Movie Mode]. g P. 52 • Select [J Sport] in the scene mode. g P. 24 The [J Sport] mode uses a fast shutter speed and can reduce the blur incurred by a moving subject.
Color hue Taking pictures with colors at the same shade as they appear. • Taking pictures by selecting white balance. g P. 40 Best results in most environments can normally be obtained with the [WB Auto] setting, but for some subjects, you should try experimenting with different settings. (This is especially true for sunshade under a clear sky, mixed natural and artificial light settings, and so on.) Image quality Taking sharper pictures.
