Tips for taking the best pictures
Try to fill the entire frame with your subject and exclude
unwanted detail.
Keep the sun behind you or at your side, not directly overhead
or in front of you.
If the light is behind your subject, use the FLASH ON setting to
increase the light on the front of your subject.
When the ambient light is low, use the flash. Make sure you
keep the subject within the flash range (2.5 m, or about 8 feet).
If you use the FLASH OFF setting in low light, use a tripod to
steady the camera during exposure.
The camera takes about a second to focus and adjust the
exposure when you press the
SHUTTER button halfway down.
Wait until you see the steady green light to the right of the
viewfinder, then press the
SHUTTER button all the way down to
take the picture. If this is the first time you are using a digital
camera, you might want to practice to become accustomed to
the timing.
If a yellow light appears to the right of the viewfinder when you
press the
SHUTTER button, the camera cannot find a focus or
the exposure will be longer than 1/30 second (or both). Try the
following:
• Make sure that you are not too close to your subject and
that you frame your pictures with the desired subject in the
center. The camera’s automatic focus has a range of 20 cm
2.5 meters
