Step 2 Frame a Picture
1
Ready the camera.
Hold the camera steadily in both hands, keeping your
fingers and other objects away from the lens, flash,
and self-timer lamp.
When taking pictures in “tall” orientation, turn the
camera so that the built-in flash is above the lens.
2
Frame the picture.
Position the main subject near the center of the mon-
itor.
Use the zoom control to activate optical zoom. Press
the zoom control to t to zoom out, increasing the
area visible in the frame, or to v to zoom in so that
the subject fills a larger area of the frame.
When the camera is zoomed in to the maximum
magnification (3×), holding the zoom control down
to v triggers digital zoom. The subject is magnified
up to 4×, for a total magnification of 12×.
A monitor indicator shows the current zoom ratio.
