Getting Sharper Pictures: BSS (Best Shot Selector)

The “Best Shot Selector” (BSS) is recommended for
situations in which inadvertent camera movement
can produce blurred pictures, for example when:
• the camera is zoomed in or a teleconverter is

used for telephoto photography

• you are taking close-up shots at short range
• the flash can not be used although lighting is

poor

BSS may not produce the desired results with a moving subject or if you change
the composition while the shutter-release button is pressed all the way down.

Restrictions on BSS

BSS can not be used in combination with bracketing, noise reduction, or
CONTINUOUS settings other than Single. The flash can not be used when
BSS is in effect.

Confirming BSS

When BSS is on, a BSS icon appears in the monitor.

Option

Description

Off

BSS off; camera functions normally.

On

Camera takes photos as long as the shutter-release button is
held down, to a maximum of ten. These images are then com-
pared and the sharpest photo (the image with the highest level
of detail) saved to the memory card. The flash turns off, and
focus distance, exposure, and auto white balance are determined
by the first photograph in the series.
