Basic Steps for Shooting and Playback

Step 3 Frame a Picture

1 Hold 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.

• When the camera detects a human face, that face is

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

setting).

• Up to 12 faces can be detected. When the camera

detects more than one face, the face closest to the

camera is framed by a double border and the others by

a single border.

• When shooting non-human subjects or when no faces

are detected, the focus area is not displayed. Position the main subject near the center

of the frame.

C Using 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 (A56) is set to c (Off).

- When using the telephoto setting.
