The Basics of Shooting and Playback
Step 3 Frame a Picture
1 Hold the camera steady.
Keep fingers, hair, the camera strap, and other objects
away from the lens, flash, AF assist-illuminator,
microphone, and speaker.
When taking pictures in portrait (“tall”) orientation, turn
the camera so that the flash is above the lens.
2 Frame the picture.
When the camera detects a human face, that face is
framed by a yellow double border (focus area) (default
setting).
Up to 12 faces can be detected. When the camera
detects more than one face, the face closest to the
camera is framed by a double border and the others by
single borders.
When shooting non-human subjects or when no faces are detected, the focus area is
not displayed. Position the main subject near the center of the frame.

C When Using a Tripod
We recommend using a tripod to stabilize the camera in the following situations.
- When shooting in dimly lit conditions with the flash mode (A 57) is set to W (off)
- When zooming in on the subject
Set Vibration reduction to Off in the setup menu (A88) when using a tripod to stabilize the
camera during shooting.
