S If the subject appears dark against a bright background, the flash will fire automatically. Set the command dial to 1. •If the subject's head and shoulders fill up most of the center of the viewfinder, an effective background blur can be achieved. In addition, a better effect can be achieved with the subject as far away from the background as possible. •A more effective background blur can be achieved when using a telephoto lens. If using a zoom lens, set the lens to the telephoto setting (80mm in the case of a 35-80mm lens). S If blinks in the viewfinder, attach an external flash unit and use flash when taking the picture. 21
