Camera shake
“Taking pictures without camera shake”
 
● Taking pictures using N (p. 14)
 
● Select [C Sport] in the scene mode (p. 13)
The [
C Sport] mode uses a fast shutter speed 
and can reduce the blur incurred by a moving 
subject.
 
● Taking pictures at a high ISO sensitivity
If a high ISO sensitivity is selected, pictures 
can be taken at a high shutter speed even at 
locations where a fl ash cannot be used.
“ISO sensitivity” (p. 22)
Exposure (brightness)
“Taking pictures with the right brightness”
 
● Taking pictures using [Face/iESP] (p. 25)
Appropriate exposure is obtained for a face 
against backlight, and the face is brightened.
 
● Taking pictures using [Fill In] (p. 21) fl ash
A subject against backlight is brightened.
 
● Taking pictures of a white beach or snow 
scene
Select [
q Beach & Snow] in the scene mode 
(p. 13).
 
● Taking pictures using exposure 
compensation (p. 21)
Adjust the brightness while viewing the screen 
for taking the picture. Normally, taking pictures 
of white subjects (such as snow) results in 
images that are darker than the actual subject. 
Use the exposure compensation to adjust in 
the positive (+) direction to express whites as 
they appear. When taking pictures of black 
subjects, on the other hand, it is effective to 
adjust in the negative (-) direction.
Color hue
“Taking pictures with colors at the same shade as 
they appear”
 
● Taking pictures by selecting white balance 
(p. 21)
Best results in most environments can 
normally be obtained with the [WB Auto] 
setting, but for some subjects, you should try 
experimenting with different settings. (This 
is especially true for sunshade under a clear 
sky, mixed natural and artifi cial light settings, 
and so on.)
