Taking Pictures  
This camera features a flash that,  
when the flash-ready light glows, will  
fire every time you take a picture.  
The all-the-time flash feature acts as  
a fill flash in hazy outdoor pictures or  
in bright-light conditions where  
shadows may exist.

Tips for Better Pictures  
• Add interest to your picture by  
framing it with a tree branch, a  
window, or even the rails of a  
fence.  
• Keep the sun behind you. This  
provides the best subject  
illumination.  
• Keep your pictures simple.  
Move close enough to your  
subject so it fills the viewfinder  
but not closer than 4 ft  
(1.2 m).  
Take pictures at the subject’s  
level. Kneel down to take  
pictures of children and pets.  
• Hold your camera vertically to  
capture tall, narrow subjects,  
such as waterfall, skyscraper,  
or a single person.

2. Take the picture when the

In dim light, such as indoors or  
outdoors in heavy shade, or on  
dark overcast days, you need  
flash. Your camera features an  
automatic flash that fires when  
you need it.
