aking Pictures

Move the camera to the right
without changing your stance.

Overlap the images.
The first image will appear in a
semi-transparent state on top of the
second image. Compose the picture
so that the first semi-transparent
image is superimposed on the out-
lines of the second real image.
If the overlapping images are hard to see, use the four-way
controller to move the semi-transparent image and superim-
pose it on the real image.

The semi-transparent section is lengthened sideways
and moves up and down when the four-way controller is
pressed.
The semi-transparent section is lengthened longways
and moves right and left when the four-way controller is
pressed.

Press the shutter release button.
The second image will be taken.

Use the four-way controller (

) to choose whether to

continue shooting.
Choose whether to continue or end
3D shooting and press the OK button.

• 3D image picture cannot be taken when the Quality level is set

to TIFF.

• Press the Menu button to end 3D shooting.
• A clear three-dimensional effect will not be achieved if the two

images are taken in widely different positions (heights) or are
not straight. When taking a person, you are recommended to
ask your model to stay as still as possible and to take the sec-
ond picture as quickly as you can. It is easier to take the pic-
tures if you use a tripod or appropriate base.

• As a guide, the camera should be moved about 1/40 of the dis-

tance between the camera and the subject. For example, if the
subject is 3m away, the distance the camera should be moved
will be 3m

× 40=7.5cm.
