Also, depending on the light source, the reddish tinge will be suppressed in the pictures taken under tungsten lights, etc. Shooting Tips zzChange the color tone. You can change [Color tone]. To increase the food’s reddish tinge, set it toward [Warm]. Set it toward [Cool] if it looks too red.
Shooting Night Portraits (With a Tripod) When you want to photograph people at night and obtain a natural-looking night scene in the background, use the <6> (Night Portrait) mode. Note that an external Speedlite is required for shooting. Using a tripod is recommended. Shooting Tips zzUse a wide-angle lens and a tripod. When using a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end to obtain a wide night view. Also, since camera shake is prone to occur with handheld shooting, use a tripod. zzCheck the image brightness.
Shooting Night Scenes (Handheld) Using a tripod when shooting a night scene gives the best results. However, the (Handheld Night Scene) mode enables you to shoot night scenes even while handholding the camera. In this shooting mode, four shots are taken consecutively for each picture, and the resulting one image with reduced camera shake is recorded. Shooting Tips zzHold the camera firmly. During shooting, hold the camera firmly and steadily.
Shooting Backlit Scenes When shooting a scene having both the bright and dark areas, use the (HDR Backlight Control) mode. When you take one picture in this mode, three consecutive shots are taken at different exposures. This results in one image, with a wide tonal range, that has minimized the clipped shadows caused by backlighting. * HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. Shooting Tips zzHold the camera firmly. During shooting, hold the camera firmly and steadily.
Shooting Quiet Scenes Where silence is needed, you can shoot without beeps such as shutter release sounds. Shooting Tips zzTake some test shots. It is recommended to take a few test shots in advance, because under some shooting conditions, lens aperture adjustment may be audible. oo As you shoot, a white frame is momentarily displayed around the screen. oo The drive mode can only be set to , , or .
Cautions for the Modes q: Group Photo oo The angle of view changes slightly, due to distortion correction. oo Depending on the shooting conditions, focus may not be attained for everyone from the front to the back of the image. 5: Sports oo Under low light where camera shake tends to occur, the shutter speed value in the lower left will blink. Hold the camera steady and shoot. oo Using an external Speedlite will decrease the continuous shooting speed.
Cautions for the Modes r: Panning (continued) oo With a lens supporting the mode, subject blur may not be corrected properly when shooting the following subjects or under the following shooting conditions. • Subjects with very low contrast. • Subjects in low light. • Strongly backlit or reflective subjects. • Subjects with repetitive patterns. • Subjects with less patterns or monotonous patterns. • Subjects with reflections (images reflected in glass, etc.).
Cautions for the Modes 6: Night Portrait oo Tell subjects to remain still for a moment after the flash fires. oo Focusing may be difficult when subject faces look dark. In this case, set the lens’s focus mode switch to and focus manually. oo Autofocusing at night or in dark scenes may be difficult when points of light lie within the AF point. In this case, set the lens’s focus mode switch to and focus manually.
Cautions for the Modes F: Handheld Night Scene (continued) oo If you shoot a moving subject, the subject’s movement may leave afterimages or the surrounding area of the subject may become dark. oo The image alignment may not function properly with repetitive patterns (lattice, stripes, etc.), flat or single-tone images, or images significantly misaligned due to camera shake. oo It takes some time to record images to the card since they are merged after shooting.
Creative Zone Creative Zone modes give you the freedom to shoot in a variety of ways by setting your preferred shutter speed, aperture value, exposure, and more. zz To clear the shooting mode description displayed when you turn the Mode dial, press <0> (=369). oo Make sure the Multi-function lock feature is off.
Program AE The camera automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture to suit the subject’s brightness.

Program AE oo If the “30"” shutter speed and the lowest f/number blink, it indicates underexposure. Increase the ISO speed or use flash. oo If the “1/4000” shutter speed and the highest f/number blink, it indicates overexposure. Lower the ISO speed or use an ND filter (sold separately) to reduce the amount of light entering the lens. Differences Between and Modes oo In mode, many functions, such as the AF method and metering mode, are set automatically to prevent spoiled shots.
Shutter-Priority AE In this mode, you set the shutter speed and the camera automatically sets the aperture to obtain the standard exposure matching the brightness of the subject. This is called shutter-priority AE. A faster shutter speed can freeze the action of a moving subject. A slower shutter speed can create a blurred effect, giving the impression of motion. * stands for Time value. Blurred motion (Slow speed: 1/30 sec.) Frozen motion (Fast speed: 1/2000 sec.) 1 Set the Mode dial to .
Shutter-Priority AE oo If the lowest f/number blinks, it indicates underexposure.

Turn the <6> dial to set a faster shutter speed until the aperture stops blinking or set a lower ISO speed. Shutter Speed Display oo For example, “0"5” indicates 0.5 sec. and “15"”, 15 sec.
Aperture-Priority AE In this mode, you set the desired aperture and the camera sets the shutter speed automatically to obtain the standard exposure matching the subject brightness. This is called aperture-priority AE. A higher f/number (smaller aperture hole) will make more of the foreground and background fall within acceptable focus. On the other hand, a lower f/number (larger aperture hole) will make less of the foreground and background fall within acceptable focus.
Aperture-Priority AE oo If the “30"” shutter speed blinks, it indicates underexposure. Turn the <6> dial to set a larger aperture (lower f/number) until the shutter speed blinking stops or set a higher ISO speed. oo If the “1/4000” shutter speed blinks, it indicates overexposure. Turn the <6> dial to set a smaller aperture (higher f/number) until the shutter speed blinking stops or set a lower ISO speed. Aperture Value Display oo The higher the f/number, the smaller the aperture opening will be.
Manual Exposure In this mode, you set both the shutter speed and aperture as desired. To determine the exposure, refer to the exposure level indicator or use a commercially available exposure meter.
