the subject. Expresses skin tones softly.
• To blur the background more, set the 
lens to the telephoto position.
• You can shoot a vivid image by 
focusing on the eye that is closer to 
the lens. 
• Use the lens hood (sold separately) to shoot backlit 
subjects.
• Use the red-eye reduction function if the eyes of your 
subject turn red from the flash (page 100).
 (Sports Action)
Shoots a moving subject at a fast 
shutter speed so that the subject looks 
as if it is standing still. The camera 
shoots images continuously while the 
shutter button is pressed.
• Press and hold the shutter button 
halfway down until the right moment.
 (Macro)

foods.

when you shoot a subject within 1 m 
(3.3 feet).
• When shooting in macro mode, the SteadyShot function 
will not be fully effective. Use a tripod to achieve better 
results.
• The shortest focal distance does not change.
 (Landscape)

sharp focus with vivid colors.
• To accentuate the openness of the 
scenery, set the lens to wide angle.

beautifully.
