It's time to leave. It is time a new batch of photos. To get excellent pictures, let's learn how to customize the camera. Our Express-course will help you with this.
1. Choose Single point AF mode (Auto focus at a single point) or Select AF (AF selected). Using the navigation control cameras, manually set the AF point that is on the target object in the frame.
2. To obtain a sharp image with shooting with hands use a shutter speed equal to one second, divided by the focal length of the lens. If you shoot with a 100 mm lens, the shutter speed should be at least 1/100 sec.
3. Use the built-in camera noise reduction system.
4. If you shoot moving objects in the camera's menu (or flash), turn the flash Synchronize feature second curtain (Rear Sync). It will add the blur of the object, rather than before it.
5. Play with the sharpness level. But gently, gradually increasing from image to image to achieve the perfect result.
6. Feel free to use the white balance setting of your camera to "heat" or "cool" photos. Try the daily mode (Daylight) or solar (Sunny) light shade (Shady) or a cloudy day (Cloudy).
If you are an aspiring photographer, we recommend that you start with these six parameters. Do not be afraid to try! With practice comes understanding.
