Best-Shot Selection
“Best-shot selection” (BSS) compensates
for camera movement. It is most effec-
tive in situations in which inadvertent
camera movement may affect the out-
come of the photograph, for example
when:
• the camera is zoomed in or you are using a teleconverter
lens attachment
• you are using macro close-up
• shutter speed is low
BSS may not produce the desired results with a moving sub-
ject or if you change the composition during shooting.
