93 Advanced Shooting This chapter builds on Chapt er 3 and introduces more ways to shoot creatively . The first half of this chapte r explains how to use the < s >, < f >, < a >, and < 8 > modes on the Mode Dial.
94 Y ou can either freeze the action or create motion blur with the < s > (Shutter-priority AE) mode on the Mode Dial. * < s > stands for T ime value. 1 Set the Mode Dial to < s >. 2 Set the desired shutter speed. See “Shooting T ips” for advice on setting the shutter speed.
95 s : Action Shots T o freeze the action or moving subject. Use a fast shutter speed such as 1/4000 sec. to 1/500 sec. T o blur a running child or animal giving the impression of fast movement. Use a medium shutter speed such as 1/250 sec. to 1/30 sec.
96 T o blur the background or to make everything near and far look sharp, set the Mode Dial to < f > (Aperture-priority AE) to adjust the depth of field (range of acceptable focus). * < f > stands for Aperture value wh ich is the size of the di aphragm hole inside the lens.
97 f : Changing the Depth of Field When using an aperture with a high f/number , note that camera shake can occur in low light scenes. A higher aperture f/number will ma ke the shutter speed slower . Under low light, the shutter speed ca n be as long as 30 sec.
f : Changing the Depth of Field 98 T o obtain a correct flash expos ure, the flash output will be set automatically to match the set a perture (autoflash exposure). The shutter speed will be set automatically between 1/200 sec. - 30 sec. to suit the scene’s brightness.
99 Y ou can set both the shutter speed and aperture manually as desired. While referring to the exposure level indicator in the viewfinder , you can set the exposure as desired. This method is called manual exposure. * < a > stands for Manual. 1 Set the Mode Dial to < a >.
a : Manual Exposure 100 T o obtain a correct flash expos ure, the flash output will be set automatically (autoflash exposure) to match the manually-set aperture. The flash sync speed can be set fr om 1/200 sec. to 30 sec. and bulb. A bulb exposure keeps the shutter open for as long as you hold down the shutter button.
101 Objects in the foreground and backgro und will be in focus automatically . All the AF points will function to detect the subject, and the aperture required to attain the necessary dept h of field will be set automatically . * < 8 > stands for Auto-Depth of field.
102 Four methods (metering modes) to measure the subject’s brightness are provided. Normally , evaluative metering is recommended. In Basic Zone modes, evaluative metering is set automatically . 1 Select [Metering mode]. Under the [ 2 ] tab, select [ Metering mode ], then press < 0 >.
103 Set exposure compensation if the exposure (without fl ash) does not come out as desired. This feature can be used in Crea tive Zone modes (except < a >). Y ou can set the exposure compensation up to ±5 stops in 1/3-stop increments. Making it brighter: Hold down the < O > button and turn the < 6 > dial to the right.
Setting Exposure Compensation N 104 Set flash exposure compensation if the flash exposure of the subject does not come out as desired. Y ou can set the flash exposure compensation up to ±2 stops in 1/3-stop increments. 1 Press the < Q > button.
105 This feature takes exposure compensation a step further by varying the exposure automatically (up to ±2 stops in 1/3-stop increments) with three shots as shown below . Y ou can then choose the best exposure. This is called AEB (Auto Exposure Bracketing).
3 Auto Exposure Bracketing N 106 Follow steps 1 and 2 to turn off the AEB amount display . The AEB setting will also be cancel ed automatically if the power switch is set to < 2 >, flash recycling is completed, etc. Using AEB with continuous shooting: If < i > continuous shooting (p.
107 Y ou can lock the exposure when the area of focus is to be different from the exposure metering area or when you want to take multiple shots at the same exposure setting. Press the < A > button to lock the exposure, then recompose and take the shot.
108 If the subject is on the side of the frame and you use flash, the subject may turn out to be too bright or dark depending on the background, etc. This is when you should use FE lock. After setting the proper flash exposure for the subject, you can re compose (put the subject toward the side) and shoot.
109 If the image comes out dark or the contrast is low , the brightness and contrast can be corrected automatic ally . This feature is called Auto Lighting Optimizer . The default setting is [ St andard ]. With JPEG images, the correction is done when the image is captured.
110 Due to the lens characteristics, the f our corners of the picture might look darker . This phenomenon is called lens light fall-of f or drop in peripheral illumination and can be corrected aut omatically . The default setting is [ Enable ]. With JPEG images, the correction is done when the image is captured.
111 3 Correcting the Image’s Dark Corners The camera already contains lens peripheral illumination correction data for approx. 25 lenses. In step 2, if you select [ Enable ], the peripheral light correction will be a pplied automatically for any lens whose correction data has been registered in the camera.
112 Y ou can customize a Picture S tyle by adjusting individual parameters like [ Sharpness ] and [ Contrast ]. T o see the resulting effect s, take test shots. T o customize [ Monochrome ], see page 1 14. 1 Press the < X A > button. 2 Select a Picture Style.
113 A Customizing Image Characteristics N Sharpness Adjusts the sharpness of the image. T o make it less sharp, set it toward the E end. The closer it is to E , the softer the image will look. T o make it sharper , set it toward the F end. The closer it is to F , the sharper the image will look.
A Customizing Image Characteristics N 114 For Monochrome, you can also set [ Filter effect ] and [ T oning effect ] in addition to [ Sharpness ] and [ Contrast ] explained on the preceding pag e. k Filter Effect With a filter effect applied to a monochrome image, you can make white clouds or green trees stand out more.
115 Y ou can select a base Picture S tyle such as [ Portrait ] or [ Landscape ], adjust its p arameters as des ired and register it under [ User Def. 1 ], [ User Def. 2 ], or [ User Def. 3 ]. Y ou can create Picture S tyles w hose parameter settings such as sharpness and contrast are diff erent.
