When shooting a moving subject, you can either “freeze the motion” or “capture the sense of

movement” by adjusting the shutter speed.

Freezes the motion of the

subject.

Photographs the traces left

by the subject's movement.

By adjusting the aperture, you can change the depth of focus (depth of field).

The area in front of and

behind the subject is also

in focus in the shot.

The background is out of

FOCUSING

(

DISTANCE

STILL PHOTOGRAPHY FUNCTIONS

The distance from the subject to the camera is referred to as the shooting distance.

When the shooting distance is set correctly and the image appears sharp, the image is focused.

■ Three focusing methods

There are mechanisms for focusing: (1) Single AF (S-AF); (2) Continuous AF (C-AF); and (3)

Manual focus (MF).

S-AF: Use S-AF for normal photography. In this mode, the camera focuses each time the Shutter

button is pressed down halfway.

✽2 Turning Macro mode ON/OFF

Wide angle:

50 cm (1.6 ft.) to infinity

Telephoto:

90 cm (3.0 ft.) to infinity

10 cm-80 cm

(3.9 in.-2.6 ft.)

1 cm-20 cm

(0.4 in.-7.9 in.)

Macro OFF Macro ON Super Macro ON

C-AF: Use C-AF when photographing moving subjects. When this mode is set, the camera

focuses continuously on the subject in the center of the screen. See P.49 for details.

MF: The focus is adjusted by turning the focusing ring manually. See P.48 for details.

◆

The AF sensor

◆

The FinePix S7000 uses an external AF sensor (external-light passive phase difference AF) that

features faster AF operation than previous models. The external AF sensor does not function

when Macro mode, Super macro mode, the digital zoom, AREA or C-AF focusing is used or

when “ADAPTER-YES” is selected. It may take longer to focus if the external AF sensor is

soiled (➡P.113).

■ Causes of focusing errors and the solutions

The subject is not suited to AF.

Use AF lock (Focus mode: AF (CENTER))✽1 or MF.

The subject is not in the AF frame.

Use AF lock (Focus mode: AF (CENTER))✽1 or MF.

The subject is outside the shooting range.

Turn Macro mode on or off (✽2).

The subject is moving too quickly. Use MF (pre-setting the shooting distance for a shot (lock pin))

◆

Subjects not suitable for auto focus

◆

h Very shiny subjects such as a mirror or car

body

h Subjects photographed through glass

h Subjects that do not reflect well, such as hair

or fur

h Subjects with no substance, such as smoke

or flames

h When the subject is dark

h When there is very little contrast between the

subject and the background (such as white

walls or subjects dressed in the same color as

the background)

h Subjects moving at high speed

h When there is a high-contrast subject other

than the main subject at or near the center of

the image and that subject is closer to or

further from the camera than the main subject

(as when you photograph someone against a

background with strongly contrasting

elements)

Exposure refers to the light that hits the CCD or the total amount of captured light and determines

the brightness of the image.

The exposure is determined by the combination of aperture and shutter speed. In AE (automatic

exposure), the camera automatically determines the correct exposure, allowing for factors such as

the brightness of the subject and the sensitivity setting.

The graph at left shows the way the aperture and shutter speed settings can

be changed while maintaining the same exposure level.

h When the exposure is decreased by one step, the shutter speed also

decreases by one step (the dot moves upper left).

h When the exposure is increased by one step, the shutter speed also

increases by one step (the dot moves lower right).

h Combinations that result in the shutter speed or aperture being outside the

available range of settings cannot be selected (white dots).

h In the “

N”, “M” and “<” photography modes, it is easy to select different

settings along this line.

h Selecting settings that run parallel to this line by adjusting the brightness of

the photographed image is referred to as exposure compensation.

When you cannot get the correct exposure

◆

AE lock: Determines and fixes the exposure at a target level. Use the following procedure to take a

picture using AE lock:

Press the “AE-L” button (sets and locks the

exposure). ➡ Press the Shutter button down

halfway (sets and fixes the focus). ➡ Press

the Shutter button down fully (takes the

picture).

Exposure compensation:

This function uses the exposure level set by

the AE function as a reference (0) and then brightens (+) or darkens (–) the image. By

selecting Auto bracketing, you can shoot 3 frames, one underexposed (–), one at the

reference exposure (0) and one overexposed (+).
