Notes
zAutomatic shooting with Self- portrait timer
Point the lens at yourself so your face is reflected in the LCD screen. The camera detects the
subjects, and then the shutter operates. The camera determines the optimal composition and
prevents faces from being cut out of the LCD screen.
You can also shoot an image by pressing the shutter button during this
operation.
zHints for preventing blur
If your hands or body moves while holding the camera and pressing the shutter button,
“Camera shake” occurs. Camera shake occurs frequently under low-light or slow shutter
speed conditions, such as those encountered in (Twilight Portrait) or (Twilight) mode.
In such a case, shoot with the below tips in mind.
Shoot with a 2-second delay self-timer and stabilize
the camera by holding your arms firmly at your side
after pressing the shutter button.
Use a tripod or place the camera on a flat surface to
hold the camera steady.
