Best Shot Selector

The Shooting Menu

Press MENU button in (auto shooting) mode to select BSS ( 74), and then press .

When the “Best Shot Selector” (BSS) is on, the cam-

era takes a maximum of ten pictures as long as the shutter-release button is held down. These images

are then compared and the sharpest picture (the

picture with highest level of detail) is saved to the memory or memory card. BSS is recommended for situations in which inadvertent camera movement can produce blurred pictures, for example when:

the camera is zoomed in

the camera is in macro close-up mode

lighting is poor and the flash can not be used

Select On or Off and press .

Option

Description

Off BSS off; camera functions normally. (default setting)

BSS on. Flash mode set to automatically and focus, On exposure, and white balance for all photos are deter-

mined by the first picture in each series.

Notes on BSS

BSS may not produce the desired results with a moving subject or if you change the composition while the shutter-release button is pressed all the way down.

When shooting pictures using self-timer, BSS is switched to Off. BSS will return to On after an image has been taken using the self-timer.

When BSS is On, Noise reduction ( 95) is not available even if this option is set to On.

Continuous, Auto Bracketing, and BSS

BSS can not be used simultaneously with Continuous ( 82) or Auto bracketing ( 88). The camera takes pictures with the latest setting among those options.

BSS

When BSS is set to On, a BSS icon appears in the monitor.
