Getting Sharper Pictures: BSS (Best Shot Selector)

The “Best Shot Selector” (BSS) is recommended for situations in which inadvertent camera movement can produce blurred pictures, for example when:

• the camera is zoomed in or a teleconverter is

used for telephoto photography

• you are taking close-up shots at short range

• the flash can not be used although lighting is poor

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.

BSS can not be used in combination with bracketing, noise reduction, or CONTINUOUS settings other than Single. The flash can not be used when BSS is in effect.
