Using the framing grid to compose a picture
The framing grid divides the LCD into thirds—vertically and horizontally. This is
helpful if, for example, you want to balance a picture between water, earth, and sky.
To turn on/off the framing grid,
see page 33.
Using PASM modes
Use PASM modes when you want more control over your camera and pictures.
NOTE: Settings you change in P, A, S, or M modes apply only to pictures taken in those modes. The settings,
including Flash, are maintained for P, A, S, and M modes—even when you change modes or turn off
the camera. Use Reset Camera (
see page 34) to reset P, A, S, or M mode to its default setting.
