Set the spot metering for highlight or shadow control. If
the subject is not in the center of the picture, use AE lock
to lock the exposure, and then change the composition
and take the picture.
Adjust the exposure compensation. It may be helpful to
use AE bracketing if you are not sure about the
exposure compensation value.
Set the gradation setting to [HIGH KEY] or [LOW KEY]
and take a picture.
Set the ISO sensitivity to a low value, ISO 200 is
recommended.
Set [NOISE REDUCT.] to [AUTO] or [ON].
When the ISO sensitivity is set to 3200 or another high
value, set [NOISE FILTER] to [HIGH].
Adjust the viewfinder's diopter in accordance with your
vision.
If the viewfinder is still difficult to view after adjusting the
diopter or you want to use the viewfinder without
eyeglasses, you can replace the viewfinder with the
optional diopter compensation eyecup.
You can adjust the brightness of the LCD monitor.
During live view, set [LIVE VIEW BOOST] to [ON] to
make the subject easier to see without the exposure
reflecting on the LCD monitor.
Set the image stabilizer function.
Hold the camera firmly when pressing the shutter button.
When using a slow shutter speed, be sure to stabilize
the camera by using a tripod or similar method.
Fire the flash regardless of the light conditions.
Increase the ISO sensitivity. When ISO is set to [AUTO],
set the upper limit to a high value, such as 1600, so that
ISO automatically increases in low light situations.
Using the self-timer can reduce camera shake that
occurs when the shutter button is pressed.
You can display the level gauge to check whether the
camera is level.
Display the ruled lines in live view. Compose the shot so
that the subject and ruled lines are horizontally and
vertically aligned.
Set [PICTURE MODE] to  to .
Activate the live view and press the n button.
