Taking pictures and videos

Fill flash

Fill flash is included on your camera (see page 21), and is a popular feature. Use fill flash for sunny-day portraits to fill in those dark shadows under the eyes, nose, or under the rim of a baseball hat. It’s also useful for side- and back-lit scenes with nearby people or objects with detail you want to reveal.

Use Exposure Compensation, or Flash Compensation when needed, by adjusting the Jog dial (see page 18).

Images taken in Portrait mode

Close ups with a close-up mode

The flower icon on the camera indicates you have Close-up mode. Once in Close-up mode, your camera takes sharp pictures at close range (see

page 24). The camera automatically sets the focus distance depending on the zoom position. Use available light instead of the flash, if possible.

Close-up telephoto lets you keep your distance from the subject when you want to capture butterflies and bees on flowers without disturbing them.
