z Shooting techniques
• When composing your shot, trying to use “three-way split” is effective. Display the grid lines to divide
the screen into three parts each by height and width, and position the subject at one of the points at the
intersection of the horizontal grid line with vertical one. In that way, you can get a stable and well-
balanced composition. Also, positioning two subjects at two intersection points diagonally is effective.
