The Basics of Shooting and Playback
Step 3 Frame a Picture
1 Ready the camera.
• Keep your fingers, hair, strap and other objects away from the lens, flash, AF-assist
illuminator and microphone.
• To shoot in the “tall” orientation, hold the camera so that the flash is above the lens.
2 Frame the picture.
• Point the camera at a subject.
• When the camera determines a scene mode, the
shooting mode icon changes (A24).
B Notes on G (Easy Auto) Mode
• Depending upon shooting conditions, the camera may not select the desired scene mode. In this
case, select another shooting mode.
• When the digital zoom is in effect, the shooting scene is set to U.
C Using a Tripod
• In the following situations, use of a tripod is recommended to avoid the effects of camera shake:
- When shooting in a dark location with flash mode (A50) set to W (off) or in a mode which
flash is disabled
- When shooting in the telephoto zoom position
• To take a picture with the camera attached to a tripod, set Vibration reduction in the setup
menu (A94) to Off.
