To take a picture against the sun, please use the [Backlight] in thescene shooting mode (see page 53), forced flash (see page 34), spot side light (see page 50),or exposure compensation (see page 39).Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.As there can be some differences between what is seen through the Viewfinder and theresulting image when taken at a range closer than 1.5m, it is recommended that you use theLCD monitor to compose these shots.Using the LCD monitor extensively will drain the batteries. We recommend turning off the LCD monitor and using the optical viewfinder as often aspossible in order to extend battery life.Under certain conditions the auto focus system may not perform as expected.- When photographing a subject that has little contrast.- If the subject is highly reflective or shiny.- If the subject is moving at high speed.- When there is strong reflected light, or when the background is very bright.- When the subject matter has only horizontal lines or the subject is very narrow (such as a stick or flagpole).- When the surroundings are dark.[ Lightly press the shutter button ] [ Press the shutter button ]
