14 How the Shutter Button Works When it is pressed halfway: • Pressing the shutter button down halfway activates autofocusing (AF), and also activates the automatic exposure (AE) mechanism and sets the shutter speed and aperture value.
15 = Loading and Unloading Film 2 Open the back cover . • Slide down the back cover release lever and open the back. 1 T urn the Mode Dial to any setting except < : >. 3 Insert the film cartridge at a slight angle. 4 Align the film leader edge with the < § > mark.

17 2 Fully Automatic Shooting Y Full Auto Mode ......................................................18 AF-Assist beam with the Built-in Flash .................19 Programmed Image Control Modes ...........................20 U Portrait / I Landscape / O Close-up / P Sports / A Night Portrait / S Flash off F Using Red-eye Reduction .
Aperture value Shutter speed 18 Y Full Auto Mode All you do is point the camera and press the shutter button. Everything is automatic so it is easy to photograph any subject. With seven AF points to focus the subject, anyone can just point and shoot. 1 T urn the Mode Dial to < Y >.
19 5 T ake the picture. • Compose the shot and press the shutter button fully . • If you want to zoom, do it before focusing. T urning the zooming ring after achieving focus may throw off the focus. • If the built-in flash’s pop-up operation is obstructed, the < π > icon will blink on the LCD panel.
20 Programmed Image Control Modes Select a shooting mode to suit the target subject, and the camera will be set to obtain the best results. Portrait This mode blurs the background to make the human subject stand out. • Holding down the shutter button executes continuous shooting.
21 This is for fast-moving subjects when you want to freeze the action. • The camera will first track the subject with the center AF point. Focus tracking will then continue with any of the seven AF points covering the subject. When focus is achieved, the beeper will sound softly .
22 F Using Red-eye Reduction (with the built-in flash) When flash is used in a low-light environment, the subject’s eyes may come out red in the photograph. T o reduce this “Red eye” the red-eye reduction lamp shines a light into the subject’s eyes before the flash is fired.

User-Controlled Shooting 27 3 Selecting the AF mode ................................................28 3 Selecting the AF point ............................................29 Focus Lock ............................................................30 When Autofocus Fails (Manual Focusing) .
28 Selecting the AF mode ★ The AF mode is the AF operation method. Three AF modes are provided: ONE SHOT (One-Shot AF), AI FOCUS (AI Focus AF), and AI SERVO (AI Servo AF). Select the AF mode. • Press the < 4 > button ( ∫ ) and turn the < l > dial.
29 The AF point is used for focusing. The AF point can be selected automatically by the camera or manually by you. In the Basic Zone modes and < Q > mode, the AF point selection is automatic only . In the < T > < R > < E > < W > modes, the AF point can be selected either automatically or manually .
30 3 Selecting the AF point ★ Focus Lock After achieving focus, you can lock the focus on a subject and recompose the shot. This is called “focus lock.” 1 Select the desired AF point. 2 Focus the subject. • Aim the AF point on the subject, then press the shutter button halfway .
31 When Autofocus Fails (Manual Focusing) Autofocus can fail to achieve focus (the focus confirmation light < n > blinks) with certain subjects such as the following: Difficult Subjects for Autofocusing • Low-contrast subjects. Example: Blue sky , flat surface with a solid color .
The camera has three metering modes: Evaluative, partial, and center-weighted average metering. Evaluative metering This is the camera’s standard metering mode suited for most shooting including backlit conditions. Based on the subject’s position in the viewfinder , brightness, background, front or back lighting conditions, etc.
33 Like the < Y > (Full Auto) mode, this is a general-purpose mode to make picture-taking easy . It sets the shutter speed and aperture value automatically to suit the subject’s brightness. ∗ < T > stands for Program. ∗ “ AE ” stands for auto exposure.
34 T Program AE 4 T ake the picture. • Compose the shot and press the shutter button fully . The Difference Between < T > and < Y > • The shutter speed and aperture value are set in the same way in both modes. • The following features can be used in the < T > mode, but not in the < Y > mode.
35 In this mode, you set the shutter speed and the camera sets the aperture value automatically to suit the subject brightness. A fast shutter speed can freeze the motion of a fast-moving subject and a slow shutter speed can blur the subject to give the impression of motion.
E Aperture-Priority AE 36 In this mode, you set the desired aperture value and the camera sets the shutter speed automatically to suit the subject brightness. The larger the aperture value (smaller aperture), the wider the depth of field (range of acceptable focus) will be.
37 W Manual Exposure In this mode, you set both the shutter speed and aperture value as desired. T o determine the exposure, refer to the exposure level indicator in the viewfinder . This method is called manual exposure. In the < W > mode, the center-weighted average metering will be set automatically .
38 Q Automatic Depth-of-Field AE This mode is for obtaining a wide depth of field automatically between a near subject and far subject. It is effective for group photos and landscapes. The camera uses the 7 AF points to detect the nearest and farthest subjects to be in focus.
39 ∑ Exposure Compensation ★ Exposure compensation is used to alter the camera’s standard exposure setting. Y ou can make the picture look lighter (increased exposure) or darker (decreased exposure). The exposure compensation amount can be set up to +/–3 stops in half-stop increments.
40 L Auto Exposure Bracketing (AEB) ★ With AEB, the camera automatically changes the exposure within the set range (up to + / – 3 stops in 1/2-stop increments) for three successive frames. 1 Move the < > > arrow to the < L > icon. • Look at the LCD panel and press the < > button.
41 j AE Lock ★ AE lock enables you to lock the exposure at a different place from the point of focus. After locking the exposure, you can recompose the shot while maintaining the desired exposure level. This feature is useful for backlit and spotlighted subjects.
42 < Multiple Exposures ★ 3 T ake the picture. s After you take all the multiple exposures, the film advances to the next frame automatically and the multiple-exposure setting is canceled. Depth-of-Field preview ★ Since the film is not advanced after each shot, you can expose multiple shots on the same frame.
43 D Setting the ISO Film Speed ★ If the film is not DX-coded or if you want to set a different film speed, load the film in the camera and set the film speed manually as follows. The settable film speed range is ISO 6 to 6400. 1 Move the < > > arrow to the < D > icon.
44 7 Safety Release Lock This prevents shutter release if there is no film loaded or if there is no lens attached. It is particularly effective against missed shots due to no film.
45 Using the Built-in Flash E : Use this mode if you want to set the flash aperture value. The camera will set the flash sync speed (within 30 sec. - 1/125 sec.
46 Using the Built-in Flash FE (Flash Exposure) lock is for setting the correct flash exposure for any part of the subject. First pop-up the built-in flash. j FE Lock ★ 1 Focus the subject. • Keep pressing the shutter button until step 3 . 2 Aim the viewfinder center over the target subject, then press the < j > button.
47 5 Setting Custom Functions ★ Custom Function Settings C.Fn-01 Self-timer delay time Y ou can customize camera functions to suit your preferences. They are called Custom Functions. The 2-sec. delay is effective for preventing camera shake (when you press the shutter button) during close-ups and other critical work.
48 5 Setting Custom Functions ★ C.Fn-02 AF point selection method 0 : Press AF point selection button, then press the cross keys. 1 : Press the shutter button halfway , then press cross keys. Effective during the < ˜ > and < ∫ > active times.
