FRAMING GUIDELINE FUNCTION 1 2
Use this frame when you want to position your main subject in center of the frame or when you want to align your shot with the horizon. This is the most effective frame for monitoring the size and balance of your subject when the shot involves motion.

Group Shot

Use this frame when you are shooting groups of 2 or more people. By composing the shot so that your subjects are as large as possible within the frame, the photograph will clearly show their facial expressions.
Portrait (Vertical shot frame)
Use this frame for portrait photography. Fit the subjects face into one of the 3 frames to shoot a close-up portrait (large frame), a head and shoulders shot (middle frame), or a half-body shot (small frame). Move at least 90 cm away from the subject and take the picture using the zoom.

Z Red-Eye Reduction

Use this mode to ensure that the subjects eyes appear natural when photographing people in low-light conditions. The flash fires a pre-flash just before the picture is taken and then fires again to take the actual picture.

M Forced Flash

Use this flash mode to photograph backlit scenes, such as a subject against a window or in the shade of a tree, or to obtain the correct colors when you are shooting under lighting such as fluorescent tubes. In this mode, the flash fires in bright as well as dark conditions.

8 Slow Synchro

This is a flash mode that uses a slow shutter speed. This allows you to take pictures of people at night that clearly show both your subjects and the nighttime backdrop.
Red-Eye Reduction + Slow Synchro
Use this mode for slow synchro shots with red-eye reduction.

N Red-Eye Effect N

When you use the flash to photograph people in low-light conditions, their eyes sometimes appear red in the picture. This is caused by the light of the flash reflecting off the inside of the eye. Use Red-Eye Reduction flash to effectively minimize the likelihood of the red-eye effect. Take the following measures also to make Red-Eye Reduction more effective :
