TAKING PICTURES UNDER DIFFERENT

CONDITIONS

Taking portrait pictures

A portrait-style photograph features an in-focus subject against a blurred

background. Your camera offers two different ways of achieving this effect.

m With the mode dial set to “S-Prg”,

select “S-Prg”–“ ” in the Menu (P.

86).

Focus on the subject. Exposure is

adjusted automatically according to the

conditions.

m Set the mode dial to “A”, then manually

set the aperture to a lower value. (P. 87)

By decreasing the aperture value, you will

force the camera to focus within a smaller

range, producing a picture with a blurred

background.

Taking pictures of moving subjects

If the subject of your photograph is moving quickly — such as athletes in a

sports scene or fast-moving vehicles, you can adjust the shutter speed to

capture the action without blurring or to heighten the sense of movement by

blurring the action. To capture fast-moving action precisely without blurring,

set the shutter speed to higher value. On the other hand, if you want your

photograph to have a sense of motion, set the shutter speed to a lower value.

This will blur the main subject, while the background remains clear.

Your camera offers two different ways of achieving these effects.

m With the mode dial set to “S-Prg”,

select “S-Prg”–“ ” in the Menu

(p.86).

Focus on the subject. Exposure is

adjusted automatically according to the

conditions.

m Set the mode dial to “S”, then select the

shutter speed manually (p.88).
