Ready the camera.

• Hold the camera steadily in both hands, keeping

your fingers and other objects away from the lens,
flash, and self-timer lamp.

• When taking pictures in “tall” orientation, turn the

camera counterclockwise so that the built-in flash
is above the lens.

Frame the picture.

Position the main subject near the center of the mon-
itor.

Use the zoom buttons to activate optical zoom.
Press t (j) to zoom out, increasing the area visi-
ble in the frame, or v  (k) to zoom in so that the
subject fills a larger area of the frame.

When the camera is zoomed in to the maximum magnification (3×), holding

down v (k) triggers digital zoom. The subject is magnified up to 4×, for a

total magnification of 12×.
A monitor indicator shows the current zoom ratio.
