Setting tips
Shooting at the eye level of your subject or from a
low angle aiming slightly upward is recommend-
ed. This can provide a perspective that enhances
a photo's impact and make it easy to focus on
the dog. When shooting with the camera at a low
position, the screen tilts conveniently, allowing
you to maintain comfortable posture.
To control the shutter speed
freely, shooting in S (Shutter
Priority) mode is recommend-
ed. With the
6000, turn the
mode dial to S and choose a
shutter speed value using the
control wheel.

To take pictures of a dog running around, use
of AF-C is recommended to maintain focus on
the subject while the shutter button is held
halfway down. It is better to set Focus Area to
Wide, since the movement of the subject will
likely be unpredictable. A dog running around
moves faster than most people might imagine,
so use a shutter speed of 1/500 sec. or faster
and set Drive Mode to Continuous Shooting in
order to take as many clear shots as possible.
