Camera: Shooting options and settings86AF AreaUse this option to change the positions of the focus area.Generally, cameras focus on the nearest subject. When there are a lot of subjects, however, unwanted subjects can be in focus. To prevent unwanted subjects from being in focus, change the focus area so that a desired subject is in focus. You can get a clearer and sharper photo by selecting an appropriate focus area.Tap   →   → AF Area, and select an option.•Center AF: Use this to focus on the centre of the frame.•Multi AF: Use this to focus on multiple areas.

168Cleaning the deviceCamera lens and displayUse a blower brush to remove dust, and then wipe the lens gently with a soft cloth. If any dust remains, apply lens cleaning liquid to a lens cleaning paper, and wipe gently.Image sensorDepending on different shooting conditions, dust may appear in photos because the image sensor is exposed to the external environment. This problem is normal, and the exposure to dust occurs in everyday use of the camera. You can remove dust from the sensor by operating the sensor cleaning function. (p. 96) If dust remains after cleaning the sensor, contact a service centre. Do not insert the blower into the mounting opening of the lens.Camera bodyWipe gently with a soft, dry cloth.Never use benzene, thinners, or alcohol to clean the device. These solutions can damage the device or cause it to malfunction.
169Concepts in PhotographyShooting posturesA correct posture for stabilising the camera is necessary for taking a good photo. Even if you hold a camera correctly, the wrong posture can cause the camera to shake. Stand up straight and remain still to maintain a steady base for your camera. When shooting with a slow shutter speed, hold your breath to minimise body movement.Holding the cameraHold the camera with your right hand and place you right index finger on the Shutter button. Place your left hand under the lens for support.
Concepts in Photography170Standing photographyCompose your shot, stand up straight with your feet shoulder-length apart, and keep your elbows pointed down.Crouching photographyCompose your shot, crouch with one knee touching the ground, and keep a straight posture.
Concepts in Photography171ApertureThe aperture, a hole that controls the amount of light that enters the camera, is one of the three factors that determine the exposure. The aperture housing contains thin and metal plates that open and close to let light through the aperture and into the camera. The size of the aperture is closely related to the brightness of a photo: the larger the aperture, the brighter the photo; the smaller the aperture, the darker the photo.Darker photo(aperture opened slightly)Brighter photo(aperture opened wide)The size of the aperture is represented by a value known as an F-number. The f-number represents the focal length divided by the diameter of the lens. For example, if a lens with a 50 mm focal length has an f-number of F2, the diameter of the aperture is 25 mm. (50 mm/25 mm=F2) The smaller the f-number, the greater the size of the aperture.The opening in the aperture is described as the exposure value (EV). Increasing the exposure value (+1 EV) means the amount of light doubles. Decreasing the exposure value (-1 EV) means the amount of light halves. You can also use the exposure compensation feature to fine-tune the amount of light by subdividing exposure values into 1/2, 1/3 EV, and so on.+1 EVF1.4 F2 F2.8 F4 F5.6 F8-1 EVExposure value steps
Concepts in Photography172Aperture value and the depth of fieldYou can blur or sharpen the background of a photo by controlling the aperture. It is closely related to the depth of field (DOF), which can be expressed as small or large.A photo with a large DOF A photo with a small DOFThe aperture housing contains several blades. These blades move together and control the amount of light passing through the centre of the aperture. The number of blades also affects the shape of light when shooting night scenes. If an aperture has an even number of blades, light divides into an equal number of sections. If the number of blades is odd, the number of sections is double the number of blades.For example, an aperture with 8 blades divides light into 8 sections and an aperture with 7 blades into 14 sections.7 blades 8 blades
Concepts in Photography173Shutter speedShutter speed refers to the amount of time it takes to open and close the shutter, and it is an important factor in the brightness of a photo, as it controls the amount of light which passes through the aperture before it reaches the image sensor.Usually, the shutter speed is manually adjustable. The measurement of the shutter speed is the exposure value (EV), which is marked in intervals of 1 s, 1/2 s, 1/4 s, 1/8 s, 1/15 s, 1/1000 s, 1/2000 s, and so on.+1 EV1s 1/2 s 1/4 s 1/8 s 1/15 s 1/30 s+1 EVExposureShutter speedTherefore, the faster the shutter speed, the less light will be let in. Likewise, the slower the shutter speed, the more light will be let in.As the photos below illustrate, a slow shutter speed allows more time to let light in, so the photo becomes brighter. On the other hand, a fast shutter speed allows less time to let light in and the photo becomes darker and more easily freezes subjects in motion.0.8 s 0.004 s
Concepts in Photography174ISO sensitivityThe exposure of an image is determined by the sensitivity of the camera. This sensitivity is based on international film standards, known as ISO standards. On digital cameras, this sensitivity rating is used to represent the sensitivity of the digital mechanism that captures the image.ISO sensitivity doubles as the number doubles. For example, an ISO 200 setting is capable of taking photos at twice the speed of an ISO 100 setting. However, higher ISO settings can result in noise. As a general rule, it is best to use a low ISO setting to prevent noise in your photos, unless you are shooting in darkened environments or at night.Changes in the quality and brightness according to ISO sensitivityBecause a low ISO sensitivity means the camera will be less sensitive to light, you need more light to have an optimal exposure. When using a low ISO sensitivity, open the aperture more or reduce the shutter speed to allow more light to enter the camera. For example, on a sunny day when light is abundant, a low ISO sensitivity does not require a slow shutter speed. However, in a dark place or at night, a low ISO sensitivity and a slow shutter speed will result in a blurry photo.A photo taken with a tripod and high ISO sensitivityA blurred photo with a low ISO sensitivity
Concepts in Photography175How the aperture setting, shutter speed, and ISO sensitivity control exposureThe aperture setting, shutter speed, and ISO sensitivity are closely interconnected in photography. The aperture setting controls the opening that regulates the light that enters the camera, while the shutter speed determines the length of time that light is allowed to enter. ISO sensitivity determines the speed at which the film reacts to light. Together, these three aspects are described as the triangle of exposure.A change in shutter speed, aperture value, or ISO sensitivity can be offset by adjustments to the others to maintain the amount of light. The results, however, change according to the settings. For example, shutter speed is useful in expressing movement, the aperture can control the depth of field, and the ISO sensitivity can control the graininess of a photo.Aperture valueSetting ResultWide aperture = more lightNarrow aperture = less lightWide = small depth of fieldNarrow = large depth of field
Concepts in Photography176Shutter speedSetting ResultFast speed = less lightSlow speed = more lightFast = stillSlow = blurryISO sensitivitySetting ResultHigh sensitivity = more sensitive to lightLow sensitivity = less sensitive to lightHigh = more grainyLow = less grainy
Concepts in Photography177Correlation between focal length, angle, and perspectiveFocal length, which is measured in millimetres, is the distance between the middle of the lens to its focal point. It affects the angle and perspective of taken photos. A short focal length translates into a wide angle, which allows you to take wide shots. A long focal length translates into a narrow angle, which allows you to take telephoto shots.Short focal lengthLong focal length
Concepts in Photography178Look at these photos below and compare the changes.20 mm angle 50 mm angle 200 mm angleNormally, a lens with a wide angle is suitable for shooting landscapes and a lens with a narrow angle is recommended for shooting sports events or portraits.Depth of fieldPortraits or still-life photos mostly acclaimed by people are the ones on which the background is out of focus so the subject looks pronounced. Depending on the focused areas, a photo can be blurred or sharpened. This is called ‘a low DOF’ or ‘a high DOF’.The depth of field is the focused area around the subject. Therefore, a small DOF signifies that the focused area is narrow and a large DOF means the focused area is wide.
Concepts in Photography179A photo with a small DOF, which stresses the subject and makes the rest of it blurred, can be obtained by using a telescope lens or selecting a low aperture value. Conversely, a photo with a large DOF which shows all the elements on the photo sharply focused can be achieved by using a wide angle lens or selecting a high aperture value.Small depth of field Large depth of fieldWhat controls out-of-focus effects?DOF depends on aperture valueThe wider the aperture is (namely the lower the aperture value), the lower the DOF becomes. Under the condition where the other values including the shutter speed and ISO sensitivity are equal, a low aperture value leads to a photo with a low DOF.50 mm F5.7 50 mm F22
Concepts in Photography180DOF depends on focal lengthThe longer the focal length is, the lower the DOF gets. A telescope lens with a longer focal length than a telescope lens with a short focal length is better to take a photo of a low DOF.A photo taken with a 20 mm telescope lensA photo taken with a 100 mm telescope lensDOF depends on the distance between the subject and the cameraThe shorter the distance between the subject and the camera is, the lower the DOF gets. Therefore, taking a photo close to a subject can result in a photo of low DOF.A photo taken with a 100 mm telescope lensA photo taken close to the subject
Concepts in Photography181CompositionIt is fun to take a photo of the beauty of world with a camera. No matter how the world is beautiful, however, a poor composition cannot capture the beauty of it.When it comes to composition, it is very important to prioritise subjects.Composition in photography means arranging objects in a photo. Usually, abiding by the rule of thirds leads to a good composition.Rule of thirdsTo use the rule of thirds, divide the image into a 3x3 pattern of equal rectangles.To compose photos that best emphasise the subject, make sure the subject is located at one of the corners of the centre rectangle.
Concepts in Photography182Using the rule of thirds will create photos with stable and compelling compositions. Below are a few examples.Photos with two subjectsIf your subject is in one corner of the photo, it creates an unbalanced composition. You can stabilise the photo by capturing a second subject in the opposite corner to balance the weight of the photo.Unstable StableSubject 2Subject 1Subject 2Subject 1
Concepts in Photography183When taking landscape photos, centring the horizon will create an unbalanced effect. Give more weight to the photo by moving the horizon up or down.Unstable StableSubject 2Subject 1Subject 2Subject 1FlashLight is one of the most important components in photography. It’s not easy, however, to have an enough amount of light anytime and anywhere. Making use of a flash allows you to optimise light settings and create a variety of effects.Flash, also known as strobe or speed light, helps to create adequate exposure in low-light conditions. It is also useful in light-abundant situations. For example, flash can be used in compensating the exposure of a subject’s shadow or capturing clearly both the subject and the background in backlit conditions.Before correction After correction
Concepts in Photography184Flash guide numberThe model number of a flash refers to the flash’s power, and the maximum amount of light created is represented by a value known as a guide number. The bigger the guide number, the more light is emitted from the flash. The guide number is achieved by multiplying the distance from the flash to the subject and the aperture value when the ISO sensitivity is set to 100.Guide number = Flash to Subject Distance X Aperture valueAperture value = Guide number / Flash to Subject DistanceFlash to Subject Distance = Guide number / Aperture valueTherefore, if you know the guide number of a flash, you can estimate an optimum flash to subject distance when setting the flash manually. For example, if a flash has a guide number of GN 20 and is 4 metres away from the subject, the optimal aperture value is F5.0.Bounce photographyBounce photography refers to the method of bouncing light off of the ceiling or walls so that the light spreads evenly over the subject. Normally, photos taken with flash may appear unnatural and cast shadows. Subjects in photos taken with bounce photography cast no shadows and look smooth due to evenly spread light.

It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by international guidelines. The guidelines were developed by an independent scientific organisation (ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile imaging devices is 1.6 W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The highest SAR values under the ICNIRP guidelines for this device model are:    Body-worn SAR 0.842 W/kDuring use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well below the values stated above. This is because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimise interference on the network, the operating power of your mobile imaging device is automatically decreased when full power is not needed for the call. The lower the power output of the device, the lower its SAR value.

Health and safety information Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals Certification Information (SAR) Your device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the exposure limits for radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. government. These FCC exposure limits are derived from the recommendations of two expert organizations, the National Counsel on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both cases, the recommendations were developed by scientific and engineering experts drawn from industry, government, and academia after extensive reviews of the scientific literature related to the biological effects of RF energy. The exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile device employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human body expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC requires wireless devices to comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/ kg). The FCC exposure limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection to the public and to account for any variations in measurements. SAR tests are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a new device is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the exposure limit established by the FCC. Tests for each model device are performed in positions and locations as required by the FCC.   For hand held operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines.  Non-compliance with the above restrictions may result in violation of FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this and other models can be viewed on-line at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/. Please use the device FCC ID number for search, A3LEKGN120. Once you have the FCC ID number for a particular device, follow the instructions on the website and it should provide values for typical or maximum SAR for a particular device. Additional product specific SAR information can also be obtained on the website.
