2Focus Lock

Use focus lock (P 38) to focus on subjects that are not in the focus frame.

Zoom out button

By holding down the zoom out button, you can switch from zoomed in to zoomed out. It makes it easy to find the lost subject when zooming in.

Holding the Camera

Hold the camera steady with both hands and brace your elbows against your sides. Shaking or unsteady hands can blur your shots.

To prevent pictures that are out of focus or too dark (un- derexposed), keep your fingers and other objects away from the lens and flash.

Avoiding Blurred Pictures

If the subject is poorly lit, blurring caused by camera shake can be reduced using the L IS MODE option in the setup menu (P 102). In Bmode, blur caused by subject movement is also reduced.

Note that blurring may still occur depending on the scene.
