Shooting tips

When you are unsure of how to take a picture that you envision, refer to the information below.

 Focusing

Focusing on the subject.

• Taking a picture of a subject not in the center of the monitor. g P. 34

After focusing on an object at the same distance as the subject, compose the shot, and take the picture.

• Set [AF Mode] to [Face/iESP]. g P. 47

• Taking a picture in [AF Tracking] mode. g P. 47

The camera tracks the subject movement automatically to focus on it continuously.

• Taking a picture of a shadowy subject. g P. 49

Using the AF illuminator makes focusing easier.

• Taking a picture of subjects where autofocus is difficult.

In the following cases, after focusing on an object (by pressing the shutter button halfway down) with high contrast at the same distance as the subject, compose the shot, and take the picture.

Subject with low contrast Excessively bright light in

Subjects at different

distances

It is also effective to compose the shot by holding the camera vertically to

center of frame

Fast-moving subject Subject not inside AF

Subject containing no vertical lines

area

focus, and then returning to the horizontal position to take the picture.

Page 85

 Camera shake

Taking pictures without camera shake.

• Taking pictures using [Image Stabilizer]. g P. 48

The camera detects camera movement to reduce the blur even if the ISO sensitivity is not increased. This function is also effective when taking pictures at a high zoom magnification.

• Shooting movies using [IS Movie Mode]. g P. 52

• Select [J Sport] in the scene mode. g P. 24 The [J Sport] mode uses a fast shutter speed and can reduce the blur incurred by a moving subject.

• Taking pictures at a high ISO sensitivity. g P. 40 If a high ISO sensitivity is selected, pictures can be taken at a high shutter speed even at locations where a flash cannot be used.

 Exposure (brightness)

Taking pictures with the right brightness.

• Taking pictures of a subject against a backlight Faces or backgrounds are bright even when shot against backlight. [Shadow Adjust] g P. 55 [E Backlight HDR] g P. 24

• Taking pictures using [Face/iESP]. g P. 47 Appropriate exposure is obtained for a face against backlight, and the face is brightened.

• Taking pictures using [Spot Metering]. g P. 48 Brightness is matched with a subject in the center of the screen and the image is not affected by background light.

• Taking pictures using [Fill In] flash. g P. 31 A subject against backlight is brightened.

• Taking pictures of a white beach or snow scene. g P. 24 Select [g Beach & Snow] in the scene mode.

• Taking pictures using exposure compensation. g P. 32 Adjust the brightness while viewing the screen for taking the picture. Normally, taking pictures of white subjects (such as snow) results in images that are darker than the actual subject. Use the exposure compensation to adjust in the positive (+) direction to express whites as they appear. When taking pictures of black subjects, on the other hand, it is effective to adjust in the negative (-) direction.

Page 86

 Color hue

Taking pictures with colors at the same shade as they appear.

• Taking pictures by selecting white balance. g P. 40

Best results in most environments can normally be obtained with the [WB Auto] setting, but for some subjects, you should try experimenting with different settings. (This is especially true for sunshade under a clear sky, mixed natural and artificial light settings, and so on.)

 Image quality

Taking sharper pictures.

• Taking pictures with the optical zoom or super-resolution zoom. Avoid using digital zoom (P. 48) to take pictures.

• Taking pictures at a low ISO sensitivity. g P. 40 If the picture is taken with a high ISO sensitivity, noise (small colored spots and color unevenness that were not in the original image) can occur, and the image can appear grainy.

Playback/Editing tips

 Playback

Playing images in the internal memory and card.

• Remove the card and display the images in internal memory. g P. 6

Viewing images with high picture quality on a highdefinition TV.

• Connect the camera to the TV using an HDMI cable. g P. 68

 Editing

Erasing the sound recorded to a still image.

• Record over the sound with silence when playing back the image.
