Using the Focus Lock/Tips for Better Pictures

Using the Focus Lock

This camera automatically focuses on whatever is within the Auto Focus (AF) brackets of the viewfinder eyepiece. To get a sharp picture, make sure the AF brackets are on your main subject. If you want to take a picture with the subject positioned outside the AF brackets, use the focus lock as follows:

Place the AF circle on the subject that you want focused in the picture.
Partially depress and hold the shutter button to lock the focus position and wait for the flash/camera-ready lamp to turn green.
While still partially depressing the shutter button, move the camera until your subject is where you want it within the viewfinder eyepiece.
Fully press down the shutter button to take the picture.

Tips for better pictures

Move close enough to your subject so it fills the viewfinder but not closer than 2 ft (0.6 m).
Take pictures at the subject’s level. Kneel down to take pictures of children and pets.
Hold your camera vertically to capture tall, narrow subjects, such as a waterfall, skyscraper, or a single person.
Add interest to your picture by framing it with a tree branch, a window, or even the rails of a fence.
Keep the sun behind you. This provides the best subject illumination.
Stand at an angle to shiny surfaces like windows or mirrors to avoid flash reflection and bright spots in your pictures.
Turn on all room lights and have your subject look at the red-eye-reduction lamp to reduce red eyes in flash pictures.
