Reference–Advanced Photography
Getting Sharper Photos:The BSS Menu
“Best-shot selection” (BSS) is used when inadvertent
camera movement could cause blurring. It is most ef-
fective in situations in which inadvertent camera move-
ment can produce blurred pictures, for example when:
the camera is zoomed in
you are using macro close-up to take pictures at
ranges of less than 30cm (1´)
the flash can not be used although lighting is poor (for example, the subject is
outside the range of the flash or you want to capture natural lighting under low-
light conditions)
BSS may not produce the desired results with a moving subject or if you change the
composition while the shutter-release button is pressed all the way down.
The BSS menu contains the following options:

card.

determined by the first picture in the series.
