Basic Photography and Playback: A (Auto) Mode
Step 2 Frame a Picture
1 Ready the camera.
Hold the camera steadily in both hands, keeping your
fingers and other objects away from the lens, flash, AF-
assist illuminator, and built-in microphone.
When taking pictures in portrait (“tall”) orientation, turn
the camera so that the built-in flash is above the lens.
2 Frame the picture.
A face detected by the camera will be framed by a yellow
double border (focus area).
Up to 12 faces can be detected. If more than one face is
detected, the face closest to the camera will be framed by
a double border, and the others by a single border.
When taking pictures of subjects other than people, or
framing a subject with which no face is detected, a focus area will not be displayed.
Frame the picture so that the intended subject is at or near the center of the frame.

• When attaching the camera to a tripod, be careful not to open the battery-chamber/memory card
slot cover and tighten the tripod screw.
• Set Vibration reduction (A 158) to Off when using a tripod to stabilize the camera during
shooting.
