Focusing Focusing in Dimly Lit Locations By default, the camera is set to use the auxiliary AF light for easier focusing in dimly lit locations (p.75). Preventing Camera Shake and Blurring of the Subject There are several solutions to prevent inadvertent camera movement (camera shake) and blurring of the subject. Increasing the ISO sensitivity (p.76) or using the flash (p.62) are possible solutions as the camera then takes pictures at higher shutter speeds. Higher shutter speeds are effective for preventing both camera shake and blurring of the subject. When the Digital SR Mode is used, an ISO sensitivity higher than that of other Capture Modes is set, so camera shake is less likely to occur. (p.49) You can check if camera shake is likely to occur when f (camera 3 shake warning) appears on the LCD monitor. Using a tripod and the self- timer (p.79) or remote control function (p.80) is recommended especially when camera shake is likely to occur. Changing the Depth of Field By zooming in on your subject from a close distance, you can narrow the depth of field and create a blurred background (p.50). Taking Pictures 71

Focusing in Dimly Lit Locations
By default, the camera is set to use the auxiliary AF light for easier
focusing in dimly lit locations (p.75).
Preventing Camera Shake and Blurring of the Subject
There are several solutions to prevent inadvertent camera movement
(camera shake) and blurring of the subject. Increasing the ISO sensitivity
(p.76) or using the flash (p.62) are possible solutions as the camera then
takes pictures at higher shutter speeds. Higher shutter speeds are
effective for preventing both camera shake and blurring of the subject.
When the Digital SR Mode is used, an ISO sensitivity higher than that of
other Capture Modes is set, so camera shake is less likely to occur. (p.49)
You can check if camera shake is likely to occur when
f
(camera
shake warning) appears on the LCD monitor. Using a tripod and the self-
timer (p.79) or remote control function (p.80) is recommended especially
when camera shake is likely to occur.

By zooming in on your subject from a close distance, you can narrow the
depth of field and create a blurred background (p.50).
