HINTS FOR TAKING PICTURES
Taking great pictures in difficult surroundings is easier than you might think.
By keeping a few points in mind and choosing the correct settings, you can
create photos that you’ll be proud to display and share.
If images are blurred even when the autofocus is
used
Your camera employs an autofocus function. When you snap a picture using
the autofocus, the camera automatically adjusts the settings so that the
image will be in focus. If you are getting blurred images even when using the
autofocus, one or more of the following might be the reason.
k How the autofocus works
The autofocus is activated when the shutter release button is gently pressed
halfway. Press the shutter release button slightly, and the target mark will
appear on the LCD monitor to indicate that the autofocus has been activated.
Next, continue to gently press the shutter release button all the way to snap
the picture. This two-step method is the way to ensure that your photos are
perfectly focussed.
k Reasons for unfocussed images
1 The shutter release button was pressed all the way in one step.
2 After the image was focussed, the subject moved.
h Even if camera focusses the subject once, if the distance between the
camera and the subject is changed, the subject may become out of
focus.
3 The focus setting is not set for the correct distance.
h If you shoot a close-up subject with the camera set to the normal focus
mode, or if you shoot a subject at normal distance with the camera set
to the super macro (close-up) mode, the image will not be in focus.
k Preventing blurred images
1 Confirm that the camera is set to the correct focus mode for your subject.
2 Hold the camera correctly, and press the shutter release button halfway.
3 Wait for the target mark to appear in the LCD monitor, and holding the
camera steady, gently continue to press the shutter release button all the
way down.
Following these steps for a gentle but firm pressing of the shutter release
button will ensure that you get beautifully focussed photos.
