22 R ECORDING MODE Basic recording operation Press the shutter-release button partway down (1) to lock the focus and exposure. • The focus signals (p. 25) on the monitor and the indicator lamp next to the viewfinder will confirm that the image is in focus.
24 25 R ECORDING MODE Focus lock The focus-lock function is used when you want to compose the image with the subject off-center and outside the focus frame. Focus lock may also be used when a special focusing situation prevents the camera from focusing on the subject.
26 27 R ECORDING MODE Flash range - Automatic operation The camera automatically controls the flash output. For well-exposed images, the subject must be within the flash range. Because of the optical system, the flash range is not the same at the lens’ wide-angle position as it is at the telephoto position.

The continuous-advance drive mode allows a series of images to be cap- tured while holding down the shutter-release button. The number of images that can be captured at one time and the rate of capture depend on the image-quality and image-size setting.
Used for self-portraits, the self-timer will delay the release of the shutter for approximately ten seconds after the shutter-release button is pressed.
Changing image size affects the number of pixels in each image. The greater the image size, the larger the file size. Choose image size based on the final use of the image - smaller images will be more suitable for web sites whereas larger sizes will produce higher quality prints.
The number of images that can be stored on a memory card is determined by the size and type of card and the file size of the images. The actual file size is determined by the scene; some subjects can be compressed further than others. 36 37 R ECORDING MODE Image quality S.
38 39 R ECORDING MODE White balance is the camera’s ability to make dif ferent types of lighting appear neutral.

45 44 R ECORDING MODE Four camera sensitivity settings can be selected with a still image: Auto, 50, 100, 200, 400; the numerical values are based on an ISO equivalent. ISO is the standard used to indicate film sensitivity: the higher the number , the more sensitive the film.

Sometimes the camera’s exposure meter is deceived by certain sub- jects. Exposure compensation can be used in these situations. For example, a very bright scene, such as a snowy landscape or a white sandy beach, can appear too dark in the captured image.
51 50 R ECORDING MODE Spot AF The spot AF is used for selective focusing. Both focus and exposure are determined with the spot focus area. Press and hold the enter button (1) to switch between the wide focus frame and the spot focus area.
Photography can be a rewarding pursuit. This guide is an introduction to some basic photographic principles. The zoom lens does not only affect how large the subject is in the picture, but it also influences the depth of field and perspective. Depth of field is the area between the closest object in focus and the furthest object in focus.

When selecting images, take care not to select an e-mail copy (p. 66) of an original picture as the print quality may be lower .
All recorded images are stored in folders on the memory card. Folder names come in two formats: standard and date. Standard folders have an eight character name. The initial folder is named 100ML T15. The first three digits are the folder ’s serial number , which will increase by one each time a new folder is created.
69 68 P LA YBACK MODE File Number (#) Memory If file number memory is selected, when a new folder is created, the first file stored in the folder will have a number one greater than the last file saved.
