Recording a Subject onto an Existing Background Image

Pre-Shot helps you get the background you want, even if you need to ask someone else to record the image for you. Basically, Pre-Shot is a two-step process.

1. Toggle the button to [ P ].

a.Press the button.

b.Select [Function] with the f button.

c.Select [Capture Mode] with the c / d button, and press the OK button.

d.Select [Pre-Shot] with the c / d button, and press the OK button.

e.Press the button to exit from the menu screen.

2.Compose the background you want on the screen, and then press the shutter button to temporarily record it as a reference image.

„ This operation causes a semi-transparent image of the background to appear on the screen, but the displayed image is not actually saved in camera memory.

3.Now you can stand in front of the background and ask someone else to take your picture, using the semi-transparent background on the screen as a composition guide.

4.After composing the final image (using the semi-transparent background as a guide), the person with the camera should press the shutter button to record.

„ Note that the semi-transparent background image temporarily recorded in step 2 is for composition purposes only. The final image contains only what is in front of the camera when the shutter button is pressed in step 4.
