Basically, Pre-composition is a two-step process.
1.  Compose  the  background  you  want  and 
press  the  Shutter  button  (press  all  the  way 
down),  which  causes  a  semi-transparent 
image  of  the  background  to  remain  on  the 
LCD display. Press Menu button to cancel the 
semi-transparent temporary image.
2.  Ask  someone  else  to  record  a  shot  of 
you  against  your  original  pre-composed 
background,  telling  him/her  to  compose  the 
image by  using  the semi-transparent  screen 
image as a guide.
3.  Adjust the camera as needed to position the 
main subject on the LCD display.
4.  When ready press the Shutter button. 
• Using Aperture Priority Mode
This  mode  allows  the user  to  control  the  aperture  value  and  let  camera 
decide  the  shutter  speed.  This  allows  the  user  to  better  manage  depth of 
field (DOF).
• Choosing a larger aperture with the subject in the foreground will blur the
 background and the main subject shall be in focus. This is shallow DOF.
• Choosing a smaller aperture allows an image with everything in focus
 (Greater DOF)
