Exposure (brightness)

“Taking pictures with the right

brightness”

Taking pictures using [FACE DETECT] (p. 27)
Appropriate exposure is obtained for a face

against the backlight, and the face is brightened.
Taking pictures using [FILL IN] (p. 20) flash
A subject against a backlight is brightened.
Taking pictures using exposure compensation

(p. 21)
Adjust the brightness while viewing the screen

for taking the picture. Normally, taking pictures of

white subjects (such as snow) results in images

that are darker than the actual subject. Use the

F

button to adjust in the positive direction to

express whites as they appear. When taking

pictures of black subjects, on the other hand, it is

effective to adjust in the negative direction.

Color hue

“Taking pictures with colors at the same

shade as they appear”

Taking pictures by selecting [WB] (p. 25)
Best results in most environments can normally

be obtained with the AUTO setting, but for some

subjects, you should try experimenting with

different settings. (This is especially true for

sunshade under a clear sky, mixed natural and

artificial light settings, and so on.)

Image quality

“Taking sharper pictures”

Taking pictures with the optical zoom
Avoid using digital zoom (p. 20) to take pictures.
Taking pictures at a low ISO sensitivity
If the picture is taken with a high ISO sensitivity,

noise (small colored spots and color unevenness

that were not in the original image) can occur, and

the image can appear grainy.
[ISO] (p. 25)

Battery

Avoid performing the following operations as

much as possible as they use up battery power

even if no pictures are actually taken

Repeatedly pressing the shutter button

halfway.
Repeatedly using the zoom.
