Taking Better Pictures

• Depending on the distance from the subject to camera, the final
picture may not match the image in the viewfinder, and zooming in can
make the discrepancy even greater. Use the monitor for close-ups.
• Subjects may be difficult to focus if they (1) have little contrast, (2)
appear excessively bright in the center, (3) have no vertical lines,
(4) are at varying distances, (5) are moving quickly, or (6) not within
the AF target mark.
To correct the situation either:
• Focus the camera at something the same distance as your subject,
allow it to focus, then aim it back at the subject and shoot.
• Set the focus at ∞.
For subjects with no vertical lines, hold the camera vertically to focus,
then move it back to the horizontal position to take the shot.
