Camera shake

“Taking pictures (or movies) without 
camera shake”

Taking pictures using [IMAGE STABILIZER] 
(p. 32)

When a picture is taken of a shadowy subject, the 
CCD

*1

 shifts to correct for camera shake even if 

the ISO speed is not increased. This function is 
also effective when taking pictures at a high zoom 
magni

fi

 cation.

*1

  A device that takes light received through the 

lens and converts it into electric signals.

Shooting movies using [DIS MOVIE MODE] 
(p. 32)

Taking picture with [

j

 SPORT] (p. 33)

Since you can take pictures with a high shutter 
speed by setting [

j

 SPORT], it’s also effective for 

blurry subjects.

Taking pictures at a high ISO sensitivity

If a high ISO sensitivity is selected, pictures can 
be taken at a high shutter speed even at locations 
where a 

fl

 ash cannot be used.

[ISO] (p. 30)

Exposure (brightness)

“Taking pictures with the right 
brightness”

Taking pictures of a subject against a backlight

A face against the backlight is brightened.

[SHADOW ADJ] (p. 33)

Taking pictures using [FACE DETECT] for 
[AF MODE] (p. 32)

Appropriate exposure is obtained for a face 
against the backlight, and the face is brightened.

Taking pictures using [

n

] for [ESP/

n

] (p. 32)

The picture can be taken based on the brightness 
at the center of the monitor, so it’s not affected by 
the light in the background.

Taking pictures using [FILL IN] (p. 23) 

fl

 ash

A subject against a backlight is brightened.

Taking pictures of a white beach or snow 
scene

Set the mode to [

q

 BEACH & SNOW]

[

a

 SNOW] (p. 33)

Taking pictures using exposure compensation 
(p. 23)

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 

F

 button 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.

Color hue

“Taking pictures with colors at the same 
shade as they appear”

Taking pictures by selecting [WB] (p. 30)

Best results in most environments can normally 
be obtained with the 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 
arti

fi

 cial light settings, and so on.)

Image quality

“Taking sharper pictures”

Taking pictures with the optical zoom

Avoid using [DIGITAL ZOOM] (p. 31) to take 
pictures.

Taking pictures at a low ISO sensitivity

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.

[ISO] (p. 30)

Panorama

“Taking pictures so that the frames are 
stitched smoothly”

A tip for panoramic shooting

Taking pictures by pivoting with the camera at the 
center prevents shifting of the image. When taking 
pictures of close objects in particular, pivoting with 
the lens end at the center produces favorable 
results.
