Basic Shooting Operation

Holding the Camera
How you hold the camera is important when taking pictures.
• Hold the camera firmly with both hands.
• Press the shutter release button gently when taking a picture.
Horizontal position Vertical position
• To reduce camera shake, support your body or the camera on a solid object such as a table, tree, or wall.
• Although there are individual differences among photographers, the shutter speed for a handheld camera is generally 1/(focal length ×1.5). For example, it is 1/75 of a second for a focal length of 50 mm and 1/150 of a second for
100 mm. A tripod should be used for shutter speeds slower than this.
• When using a telephoto lens, a tripod that is heavier than the total weight of the camera and lens is recommended to avoid camera shake.
Letting the Camera Choose the Optimal
Settings
How to set the camera so it will choose the optimum settings based on the subject lighting, distance and motion.

Pressing it down halfway (first position) turns on the viewfinder and
LCD panel indicators and the autofocus system operates. Pressing it fully (second position) takes the picture.
• Press the shutter release button gently when taking a picture to prevent camera shake.
• Practice pressing the shutter release button halfway to learn where the first position is.
• The viewfinder indicators stay on while shutter release button is pressed. The indications stay on for about 10 seconds (default setting)
after the button is released. (p.20)

Hard-to-Autofocus Subjects
The autofocus mechanism is not perfect. Focusing may be difficult when taking pictures under the following conditions ((a) to (f) below). These also apply to manual focusing using the focus indicator ] in the viewfinder.
If the subject cannot be focused automatically, set the focus mode lever to
\ and use the manual focus mode to focus on the subject with the aid
of the matte field in the viewfinder. (p.127)
(a) Extremely low-contrast subjects such as a white wall in the focus points range.
(b) Subjects which do not reflect much light within the focus points range.
(c) Fast moving objects.
(d) Strongly reflected light or strong backlighting (bright background).
(e) If vertical or horizontal line patterns appear within the focus points range.
(f) Multiple subjects in the foreground and background within the focus points range.
Subject may not be focused even when ] (focus indicator) is displayed when
(f) above applies.
Selecting the Appropriate Capturing
Mode for Scenes
The camera selects and set the optimum mode when I (Auto Picture) on the mode dial is set to the dial indicator.

Dial indicator
Select U (Normal), = (Portrait), s (Landscape), q (Macro), \ (Moving
Object), . (Night Scene Portrait), a (Flash OFF) with the mode dial if desired image is not captured in Auto Picture mode.
The modes are as follows.
I (Auto Picture)
Selects automatically from Normal, Portrait,
Landscape, Macro, and Moving Object modes.
U
(Normal)
= (Portrait)
The basic picture-taking mode.
Optimal for capturing portraits.
s q
(Landscape)
(Macro)
Deepens the focus range, emphasizes contour and saturation of trees and the sky, and produces a bright image.
Lets you take vibrant pictures of flowers and other small subjects at short distances.
\ (Moving Object)
Lets you take sharp pictures of a quickly moving subject, such as at a sporting event.
.
(Night Scene Portrait) Lets you capture people against a night view or dusk.
a (Flash OFF)
The built-in flash is deactivated. Other settings are the same as U (Normal).
For . (Night Scene Portrait), the shutter speed becomes slower in dark places, even if the built-in flash is used. Use a tripod to avoid camera shake.
48
Using the Zoom Lens
Enlarge the subject (telephoto) or capture a wider area (wide angle) with a zoom lens. Adjust it to the desired size and take the picture.
3
1
Turn the zoom ring to the right or left.
Turn the zoom ring clockwise for telephoto and counterclockwise for wide angle.
• The smaller the number of the displayed focal length, the wider the angle.
The larger the number, the more magnified the image appears.
• Power Zoom functions (Image Size Tracking, Zoom Clip, and Auto Zoom
Effect) are not compatible with this camera.
Wide Angle Telephoto
Using the Built-in Flash
49
Use the following procedures to take a picture in low light or backlit conditions or when you want to manually use the built-in flash.
The built-in flash is optimum at about 0.7 m to 4 m from the subject.
Exposure will not be properly controlled and vignetting may occur when used at a distance closer than 0.7 m (this distance varies slightly
depending on the lens being used and set sensitivity (p.150)).
Compatibility of built-in flash and lens
Vignetting (darkening of the corners of the image due to a lack of light) may occur depending on the lens being used and the capture conditions. We recommend taking a test shot to confirm this.
1 DA, D FA , FA J, FA and F Lens Compatibility with the Built-in Flash
• When using the built-in flash, remove the lens hood before shooting.

Using Red-eye Reduction Flash
“Red-eye” is the phenomenon where eyes look reddish in photographs taken in dark environments with a flash. This is caused by the reflection of the electronic flash in the retina of the eye. Red-eye occurs because pupils are dilated in dark environments.
This phenomenon cannot be averted but the following measures can be used to combat it.
• Brighten the surroundings when shooting.
• Set to wide angle and shoot from closer if a zoom lens is in use.
• Use a flash that supports red-eye reduction.
• Position the flash as far away from the camera as possible when using an external flash.
The red-eye reduction function on this camera reduces red-eye by discharging the flash twice. With the red-eye reduction function, the pre-flash is discharged just before the shutter is released. This reduces pupil dilation. The main flash is then discharged while the pupils are smaller, reducing the red-eye effect. To use the red-eye reduction function, set C (Red-eye reduction auto flash) in Picture mode or D
(Red-eye reduction manual flash) in other modes for Flash mode.
Daylight-Sync Shooting
In daylight conditions, the flash will eliminate shadows when a portrait picture is taken with a person’s face cast in shadow. Use of the flash in this way is called Daylight-Sync Shooting. Flash is discharged manually when shooting with Daylight-Sync Shooting.
Taking pictures (Auto Picture)
1 Confirm that the flash has popped up and the flash mode is set to b
2 Confirm that the flash is fully charged.
3 Take the picture.
The picture may be over-exposed if the background is too bright.
