∫ AF/AE Lock (AF: Auto focus/
AE: Auto exposure)
When recording a picture of people with a
composition as the above picture, you
cannot focus on the subject because it is
out of AF area in usual operation.
In this case,
1 Aim the AF area at the subject.
2 Press the shutter button halfway to fix
the focus and the exposure.
• When the subject is focused, the focus
indication lights.
3 Keeping pressed the shutter button
halfway, move the camera as you
compose the picture.
4 Press the shutter button fully.
• You can repeatedly retry AF/AE lock
before pressing the shutter button fully.
∫ Tips for taking good pictures
To take pictures without blurring:
• Hold the camera gently with both hands,
keep arms stationary at your side and
stand with your feet slightly apart.
• Make sure that camera shake does not
occur when you press the shutter button.
• Do not cover the photo flash or the AF
assist lamp with your finger or other
objects.
• Do not touch the front of the lens.
1: When holding the camera sideways
2: When holding the camera vertically
A: Photo flash
B: AF assist lamp
• Especially in the following cases, the
shutter speed will be slower. Keep the
camera still from the moment you press
the shutter button until the picture appears
on the screen. We recommend using a
tripod. The use of the self-timer (P40)
prevents jittering caused by pressing the
shutter button when you are using a
tripod.
