1Hold the camera steadily in both hands.

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

•When taking pictures in portrait (“tall”) orientation, turn the camera so that the built-in flash is above the lens.

2 Frame the picture. Shooting mode icon

•When the camera detects a face, that face will be

framed by a yellow double border (focus area) (default setting).

• Up to 12 faces can be detected. If more than one face is
detected, the face closest to the camera will be framed	8 m 0 s
by a double border, and the others by a single border.
• When taking pictures of subjects other than people, or	9 5 0
framing a subject with which no face is detected, a

focus area will not be displayed. Frame the picture so that the intended subject is at or near the center of the frame.

CUsing a Tripod

•We recommend using a tripod to stabilize the camera when shooting in the following situations:

-When shooting in dim lighting or when the flash mode (A54) is set to W (Off).

-When using the telephoto setting.

•Set Vibration reduction to Off in the setup menu (A86) when using a tripod to stabilize the camera during shooting.
