SHOOTING A SNAPSHOT

Auto Focus Restrictions

• Proper focus may not be possible when shooting the following

types of subjects.

– Solid color wall or other very low contrast subject

– Strongly back lit subject

– Very shiny subject

– Blinds or other subject with a repeating horizontal pattern

– Multiple subjects at varying distances from the camera

– Subject in a dark location

– Subject that is too far away for light from the AF assist lamp

to reach

– Fast-moving subject

– Subjects outside the focus range of the camera

• Proper focus may not be possible if the camera is moved

while shooting.

• An image may be out of focus even though the operation

lamp is lit green and the focus frame is green.

If you cannot focus properly, try using focus lock (page 117)

or manual focus (page 119).

Your camera provides you with 3X optical zoom (which changes

the lens focal distance), which can be used in combination with

digital zoom (which digitally process the center portion of the

image to enlarge it) for total zoom capabilities of 12 - 42.6X.

IMPORTANT!

• Generally speaking, the higher the digital zoom factor, the

coarser the image that is recorded. However, digital zoom

can be used up to a certain point without causing

deterioration of the image.
