2 Tips before you start taking pictures Tips before you start taking pictures Your pictures are almost guaranteed to come out well just by setting the mode dial to P and pressing the shutter button. But occasionally, you can’t focus on your subject, or the subject is too dark, or the picture doesn’t come out the way you want… Just knowing which button to press or which setting to change can help you solve these problems.
Holding the camera Sometimes when you look at a picture you have taken, the contours of the subject are blurred. This is often caused by movement of the camera at the precise moment that the shutter button is pressed. Tips before you start taking pictures 2 Picture where subject is not clearly defined To prevent the camera from moving, hold the camera firmly with both hands while keeping your elbows at your sides.
Turning the monitor on/off You can take pictures with or without using the monitor. MONITOR ON For taking pictures using the monitor (factory default setting) MONITOR OFF For taking pictures using the viewfinder Mode dial Top menu [MONITOR OFF] / [MONITOR ON] g“Menus” (P.17) Monitor Advantages Camera movement occurs easily and subjects may be difficult to Disadvantages see in bright/dark places. The monitor uses more battery power than the viewfinder.
If correct focus cannot be obtained The camera automatically detects the focus target in the frame. The level of contrast is one of the criteria it uses to detect the subject. The camera may fail to determine subjects with lower contrast than the surroundings or with an area of extremely strong contrast in the frame. If this happens, the simplest solution is to use the focus lock.
If correct focus cannot be obtained 4 Press the shutter button fully. Shutter button TIPS Fix the focus position. g“AF lock” (P.49) Focus on the subject in the center of the frame. g“AF mode” (P.46) Subjects that are difficult to focus on Under certain types of conditions, the auto focus may not work properly. The green lamp blinks. The subject cannot be brought into focus.
Record mode You can select a record mode in which to take pictures or shoot movies. Select the best record mode for your purpose (printing, editing on a computer, website editing, etc.). For information on the image sizes for each record mode and the memory capacity of the card, see the table on P.28. Still picture record modes Record mode depicts the image size and compression rate of pictures you wish to record. Pictures are made from thousands of dots (pixels).
Record mode Image size The number of pixels (horizontal × vertical) used when saving an image. If the image will be printed, higher resolutions (larger numbers) are recommended so that the image will be clearer. Compression In record modes other than TIFF, image data are compressed. The higher the compression, the less clear the image will be. 2 Record mode RAW 3:2 (SHQ, HQ) Features Image size Raw uncompressed data 3072 × 2304 This is useful for ordering prints from a photo lab.

3 Basic shooting functions Basic shooting functions A professional photographer adjusts the exposure to the optimal setting, chooses the best focusing method and even selects the type of film according to the subject. With a digital camera, you don’t need to learn how to make them.
Selecting a shooting mode according to the situation When you select a scene mode according to the situation or shooting conditions, the camera automatically selects the optimal settings. (f mode i Portrait shooting Suitable for taking a portrait-style shot of a person. This mode features an in-focus subject against a blurred background. PORTRAIT Basic shooting functions 3 SELECT GO OK j Sports shooting Suitable for capturing fast-moving action (such as sports) without blur.
Selecting a shooting mode according to the situation R Night Scene shooting Suitable for shooting pictures in the evening or at night. The camera sets a slower shutter speed than is used in normal shooting. For example, if you take a picture of a street at night in P mode, the lack of brightness will result in a dark picture with only dots of light. In the Night Scene shooting mode, the true appearance of the street is captured.
Zooming in on a distant subject Basic shooting functions 3 You can zoom in on your subject using the optical zoom and digital zoom. With the optical zoom, the image is enlarged by the CCD when the lens magnification is changed, and the image is formed by all the CCD pixels. With the digital zoom, the area at the center of the image captured by the CCD is cropped and enlarged back to size. When you zoom in on a subject, you are essentially taking a small area of the picture and making it bigger.
Zooming in on a distant subject Note • You can use the optical zoom in n mode by setting [R] to [OFF]. g“Recording sound with movies” (P.79) • In n mode, the maximum magnification possible for digital zoom is 4×. Using the digital zoom Mode dial 3 [MODE MENU] [CAMERA] [DIGITAL ZOOM] [ON] / [OFF] g“Menus” (P.17) Mode dial Top menu 1 [DIGITAL ZOOM] [ON] / [OFF] Pull the zoom lever toward T. • The white area of the zoom indicator indicates the optical zoom.
Taking close-up pictures (macro/super macro mode) Focusing is usually slow when you get close to a subject (W: 8 cm/3.2" to 60 cm/23.6", T: 60 cm/23.6" to 120 cm/47.2"). However, in macro mode focusing is performed quickly. & When the optical zoom lever is at the maximum wide position and you are as close as 8 cm/3.2" to your subject, you can fill the entire frame with a 9.0 × 6.6 cm (3.5" × 2.6") subject. This mode lets you shoot from as close as 2 cm/0.8" to your subject.
Flash shooting Select the flash mode best suited to the light conditions and the effect you want to achieve. You can also adjust the amount of light emitted using the flash intensity control. Flash working range W (max.): Approx. 15 cm to 3.8 m (0.5 ft. to 12.5 ft.) T (max.): Approx. 60 cm to 2.2 m (2.0 ft. to 7.2 ft.) Auto-flash (No indication) The flash fires automatically in low light or backlight conditions.
Flash shooting Slow synchronization (#SLOW1/#SLOW2/HSLOW1) The slow synchronization flash is designed for slow shutter speeds. Normally, when shooting with a flash, shutter speeds cannot go below a certain level to prevent camera movement. But when shooting a night scene background, fast shutter speeds can make the background too dark. Slow synchronization flash allows both a slow shutter speed for the background and a flash for the subject.
Flash shooting 1st curtain with red-eye reduction HSLOW1 This mode is for when you want to use slow synchronization, yet also reduce the redeye phenomenon, for instance, when shooting a person against a brightly lit night background. A normal flash might make the person’s eyes red, but 1st curtain with red-eye reduction lets you capture the background correctly and reduce the red-eye phenomenon at the same time. 2nd curtain with red-eye reduction is not available. Mode dial 1 • The flash pops up.
Flash shooting TIPS The # (flash charge) indication blinks. → The flash is charging. Wait until # and the orange lamp beside the viewfinder turn off. Shutter speed when using the flash (auto-flash, red-eye reduction, fill-in flash). • When # (camera movement warning) lights, the shutter speed locks at its current level. This helps prevent camera shake problems (shutter speeds that are too slow can cause blur).
Flash shooting Flash intensity control You can adjust the amount of light emitted by the flash. In some situations, you may get better results by adjusting the light emission. Examples include small subjects, distant backgrounds, or situations when increased contrast is desired. You can adjust the exposure in the range of ±2.0 EV in 1/3 EV steps. Mode dial [CAMERA] Adjust the light emission and press e. a : Light emission is increased by 1/3 EV each time you press the button.
4 Advanced shooting functions Advanced shooting functions Letting the camera select the optimal settings is simple and easy, but if you want, you can be a lot more creative. Now that you have mastered basic operation, you can start enjoying your camera’s more advanced functions. You can adjust the shooting conditions manually and try out different effects.
Aperture priority shooting This function allows you to set the aperture manually. The camera sets the shutter speed automatically. By decreasing the aperture value (Fnumber), the camera will focus within a smaller range, producing a picture with a blurred background. Increasing the value forces the camera to focus over a wider range, resulting in increased “depth of field”, in which both the subject and the background are in focus. Aperture (F-number) is decreased. Aperture (F-number) is increased.
Shutter priority shooting This function allows you to set the shutter speed manually. The camera sets the aperture automatically. Set the shutter speed according to the subject and the type of effect you want. Advanced shooting functions 4 Setting the shutter speed higher lets you capture fast-moving action without blur. The subject will be clear and sharp, as if it is not moving. Setting the shutter speed lower blurs a moving subject, giving the impression of movement.
Manual shooting This mode gives you more creative control, allowing you to set the aperture and shutter speed manually. To check the exposure, refer to the exposure differential. Mode dial 1 Set the aperture and shutter speed. b : The aperture value increases. d : The aperture value decreases. bdac buttons x (AE lock/Custom) button a : The shutter speed increases. c : The shutter speed decreases.

Metering There are three ways of measuring the brightness of a subject. ESP Meters the center of the subject and the surrounding area separately. n Exposure is determined by metering within the AF target area. In this mode, a subject can be shot with optimal exposure regardless of the background light. MULTI METERING Meters the brightness of the subject at up to 8 different points to set the optimal exposure based on the average brightness. This method is useful with a high contrast subject.
Metering 3 Position the AF target mark on the area you want to meter and press the x button. P 1/1000 F2.8 0.0 • The multi-metering bar appears. • The brightness is metered at up to 8 different points.

ISO sensitivity The higher the ISO value, the greater the camera’s light sensitivity and the better its ability to shoot in low light conditions. However, higher values also introduce electrical noise into the resulting image, which may give it a grainy appearance. AUTO 80/100/200/400 Sensitivity is automatically adjusted according to the light conditions and the subject brightness. With a lower ISO setting, you can shoot clear, sharp images in daylight.
Exposure compensation This function allows you to make fine changes to the exposure setting. You can adjust the exposure in the range of ±2.0 EV in 1/3 EV steps. When the setting is changed, you can check the result on the monitor.

Glossary of terms Eclipsing (Vignetting) This refers to when an object obscures part of the field of view so that the whole subject is not photographed. Vignetting also refers to when the image seen through the viewfinder does not exactly match the image shot through the objective lens, so the photographed image includes objects not seen through the viewfinder. In addition, vignetting can occur when an incorrect lens hood is used, causing shadowing to appear in the corners of the image.
Glossary of terms PictBridge A standard for connecting digital cameras and printers of different makers and printing out pictures directly. Pixels A pixel is the smallest unit (dot) used to make up an image. Clear large-sized printed images require millions of pixels. S (Shutter Priority) Mode Also called Shutter Priority AE mode. The user selects the shutter speed and the camera automatically varies the aperture so that the picture is taken with the best exposure.
