6 Features The autofocus system As you press the shutter button, your camera sends sound waves - within 10 thousandths of a second - to the central part of the scene (approximate area circled in white, see illustration). The sound waves are used to measure the distance to the person or object (in the central part of the scene) that is closest to the camera. A built-in computer then uses this measurement to pro- vide the correct lens setting, so be sure that: • The sound waves

Features 7 The viewfinder displays When you have a film pack in the camera and press the shutter button halfway, a display appears in the viewfinder to help you take the best possible picture. When you see a number in the viewfinder, it tells you the distance to your subject (in feet or meters). This number will help you follow the distance recommendations throughout this book. When you see a green “good picture” symbol, the condi- tions are right for taking a good picture.

8 Features The programmed flash Every time you take a picture, indoors or outdoors, your (pictures 10, 11) camera blends light from the scene with just enough flash to provide the right lighting for the best possible picture. In the sample outdoor scene, photographed without flash (picture 10), bright sunlight has created harsh facial shadows. Your camera blends sunlight with just the right amount of flash to soften shadows and reveal facial details (pic- ture 11). The recharge Th

10 Features Backgrounds too dark? If the background of a flash picture is too dark but your (pictures 12, 13) subject is well illuminated (picture 12), the background is too far away. Moving the control to the lighten setting will not correct this problem, so be sure the exposure control is in the normal position. Retake the picture, placing your subject near a background and keeping both within the 2 to 15 foot (0.6m to 4.6m) flash range (picture 13).

Features 11 The self-timer The self-timer lets you get into your picture. To use this feature, place the camera on a tripod or other steady support. If you attach the camera to a table tripod, be sure the camera is positioned over one of the tripod’s legs for proper support. Frame your picture in the viewfinder and press the shutter button halfway to be sure you get the green “good pic- ture” symbol. Then release the shutter button. Slide the self-timer switch all the way down (a). You now a

12 Features Photographing through glass To avoid focusing on the glass and getting a flash reflection, turn off the autofocus and flash systems by sliding both switches down, as shown (a, b). When you turn off the autofocus system, the lens sets for distant scenes (15 feet (4.6m) to infinity), requiring the picture to be taken in a special way: • Be sure the scene is at least 15 feet (4.6m) from the camera and in daylight. a b • Frame the picture in the viewfinder and press the shutter button
