q
BEACH & SNOW]. (p. 17)
Taking pictures using exposure compensation
(p. 20)
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. 26)
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
artificial light settings, and so on.)
Image quality

Taking pictures with the optical zoom
Avoid using [DIGITAL ZOOM] (p. 27) 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.

Taking pictures by pivoting with the camera at the

pictures of close objects in particular, pivoting with
the lens end at the center produces favorable
results.

Avoid performing the following operations as
much as possible as they use up battery power
even if no pictures are actually taken.
Repeatedly pressing the shutter button
halfway
