Shooting with the scene function

Shooting portraits (portrait mode Z)

Points:

i Choose a background that doesn’t detract from your subject.

i Move in close to your subject.

i Pay attention to lighting and how it affects your subject.

NOTE

i If the background is distracting, it will not show your subject to his best

advantage. Move in closer to your subject or zoom in so that the

background does not compete with the subject.

i In portrait photography your subject is clearly the central figure, so try

techniques that allow the subject to stand out.

i If light is coming from behind your subject (backlit), his face will appear

dark. You can get a better picture by using the flash, for example, or

changing the exposure setting.

Photographing moving subjects (sports mode Y)

Points:

i Match the camera’s movement with that of the subject.

i Set the zoom to the Wide end (wide-angle).

i Don’t be too hesitant to press the shutter button, or you’ll miss the action.

NOTE

i Tips to not missing those great action shots: Make sure you’re holding the

camera correctly. Keep the subject in the lens at all times, moving the

camera with him while waiting for the right shot. Move your whole body–not

just your arms–with the camera while shooting.

i Blurred images are more likely when the zoom is set to the Tele end than

the Wide end. Set the zoom as close as possible to the Wide end.

i Learn to press the shutter button quickly yet smoothly the instant your

photo chance occurs.
