Panasonic DMCFZ28K, DMC FZ 28 Taking Pictures with the Zoom, Rotate the zoom lever towards Tele

Basic

You can make the background more blurred by decreasing the aperture value or record a moving subject more dynamically by slowing the shutter speed when taking a picture in program AE mode.

•Press the shutter button halfway and then use the joystick to activate program shift while the aperture value and the shutter speed are displayed on the screen (about 10 seconds).

•The program shift indication A appears on the screen when program shift is activated.

•Program shift is canceled if the camera is turned off or the joystick is moved up and down until the program shift indication disappears.
