Step 2 Frame a Picture

1 Ready the camera.

Hold the camera steadily in both hands.

Keep your fingers, hair, strap and other objects away from the lens, flash, AF-assist illuminator, microphone and speaker.

When using the flash (A32) to shoot in the “tall” orientation, hold the camera so that the flash is above the lens.

Using the Viewfinder

Use the viewfinder to frame pictures when bright light makes it difficult to see the monitor.

When the image in the viewfinder is difficult to see, adjust by rotating the diopter adjustment control while looking through the viewfinder.

Take care not to scratch your eye with your fingertips or nails.

When shooting at ranges of about 2 m (6 ft. 7 in.) or less at the maximum telephoto position

When a wide-angle converter lens is used (available separately from Nikon; A104)

When the digital zoom is applied (A27)
