Repeatedly press
MODES (20) to select the
flash mode that best suits your subject and
surroundings or a picture-taking mode that
lets you tailor the camera’s fully
automatic settings.
Tips for better pictures
• Move close enough to your subject so it
fills the viewfinder but not closer than
1.3 ft (0.4 m).
• Take pictures at the subject’s level.
Kneel down to take pictures of
children and pets.
• Hold your camera vertically to
capture tall, narrow subjects, such
as a waterfall, skyscraper, or a
single person.
• Add interest to your picture by framing it
with a tree branch, a window, or
even the rails of a fence.
• Keep the sun behind you. This provides
the best subject illumination.
• Stand at an angle to shiny surfaces like
windows or mirrors to avoid flash
reflection and bright spots in
your pictures.
• Turn on all room lights and have your
subject look at the flash to reduce red
eyes in flash pictures.
