However, in macro mode focusing is performed quickly. & When the optical zoom lever is at the maximum wide position and you are as close as 8 cm/3.2"...
Page 37: Flash Shooting
Flash shooting Select the flash mode best suited to the light conditions and the effect you want to achieve. You can also adjust the amount of light emitted using the flash intensity control. Flash working range W (max.): Approx. 15 cm to 3.8 m (0.5 ft. to 12.5 ft.) T (max.): Approx.
Page 38 Flash shooting Slow synchronization (#SLOW1/#SLOW2/HSLOW1) The slow synchronization flash is designed for slow shutter speeds. Normally, when shooting with a flash, shutter speeds cannot go below a certain level to prevent camera movement. But when shooting a night scene background, fast shutter speeds can make the background too dark.
Page 39: Take The Picture
1st curtain with red-eye reduction HSLOW1 This mode is for when you want to use slow synchronization, yet also reduce the red- eye phenomenon, for instance, when shooting a person against a brightly lit night background. A normal flash might make the person’s eyes red, but 1st curtain with red-eye reduction lets you capture the background correctly and reduce the red-eye phenomenon at the same time.

Shutter speed when using the flash (auto-flash, red-eye reduction, fill-in flash). • When # (camera movement warning) lights, the shutter speed locks at its current level.
Page 41: Flash Intensity Control
Flash intensity control You can adjust the amount of light emitted by the flash. In some situations, you may get better results by adjusting the light emission. Examples include small subjects, distant backgrounds, or situations when increased contrast is desired. You can adjust the exposure in the range of ±2.0 EV in 1/3 EV steps.

4 Advanced shooting functions Advanced shooting functions Letting the camera select the optimal settings is simple and easy, but if you want, you can be a lot more creative. Now that you have mastered basic operation, you can start enjoying your camera’s more advanced functions.
Page 43: Aperture Priority Shooting
Aperture priority shooting This function allows you to set the aperture manually. The camera sets the shutter speed automatically. By decreasing the aperture value (F- number), the camera will focus within a smaller range, producing a picture with a blurred background. Increasing the value forces the camera to focus over a wider range, resulting in increased “depth of field”, in which both the subject and the background are in focus.
Page 44: Shutter Priority Shooting
Shutter priority shooting This function allows you to set the shutter speed manually. The camera sets the aperture automatically. Set the shutter speed according to the subject and the type of effect you want. Setting the shutter speed higher lets you capture fast-moving action without blur.
Page 45: Manual Shooting
Manual shooting This mode gives you more creative control, allowing you to set the aperture and shutter speed manually. To check the exposure, refer to the exposure differential. Mode dial Set the aperture and shutter speed. : The aperture value increases. : The aperture value decreases.

Page 52: Metering
Metering There are three ways of measuring the brightness of a subject. Meters the center of the subject and the surrounding area separately. Exposure is determined by metering within the AF target area. In this mode, a subject can be shot with optimal exposure regardless of the background light.

Page 56: Iso Sensitivity
ISO sensitivity The higher the ISO value, the greater the camera’s light sensitivity and the better its ability to shoot in low light conditions. However, higher values also introduce electrical noise into the resulting image, which may give it a grainy appearance.

Exposure compensation This function allows you to make fine changes to the exposure setting. You can adjust the exposure in the range of ±2.0 EV in 1/3 EV steps. When the setting is changed, you can check the result on the monitor. Mode dial Press bd to select a setting.
Page 58: White Balance
White balance Color reproduction differs depending on the light conditions. For instance, when daylight, the setting sun or tungsten lighting are reflected on white paper, the shade of white produced will be slightly different for each. By setting the WB (white balance), you can achieve more natural-looking colors.

Page 63: Contrast
Contrast This function adjusts the contrast of images. For example, you can make images with marked differences in light and shadow softer, and those with less differences more vivid. Mode dial Top menu [MODE MENU] Press ac to adjust the contrast between [+5] and [-5].
Page 64: Noise Reduction
Noise reduction When shooting in dark places, shutter speeds become slower as there is less light focused on the CCD. During long exposures, signals are generated by parts of the CCD where no light is focused and are recorded on the image as noise. When [NOISE REDUCTION] is set to [ON], the camera automatically reduces the noise to produce clearer images.
Page 65: Histogram
Histogram When shooting still pictures, you can display a histogram showing the brightness and contrast of your subject in the monitor. You can also display the black and white areas directly on the picture. Displaying the brightness and contrast of your subject enables fine adjustment of the exposure.
