Always use the AF/AE lock to compose your picture.
Failing to use the AF/AE lock may result in the image
being out of focus.
◆Important◆
Use this frame when you want
to position your main subject in
center of the frame or when you
want to align your shot with the
horizon.
This is the most effective frame
for monitoring the size and
balance of your subject when
the shot involves motion.
Use this frame when you are
shooting groups of 2 or more
people.
By composing the shot so that
your subjects are as large as
possible within the frame, the
photograph will clearly show
their facial expressions.
Use this frame for portrait
photography.
Fit the subject's face into one of
the 3 frames to shoot a close-up
portrait (large frame), a head and
shoulders shot (middle frame), or
a half-body shot (small frame).
●
!
The lines in the scene frame roughly
divide the recorded pixels into three equal
parts horizontally and vertically. When the
image is printed, the resulting print may be
shifted slightly from the scene frame.
