camera with both hands. Position of your right
thumb so that it is handy for using the zoom.

Moving the camera while shooting gives a blurred picture
(camera shake). Use a tripod to avoid camera shake,
particularly for shots in the dark when the selected flash
mode is Suppressed flash.
Use the LCD monitor to frame the shot so that the
subject fills the entire AF (Autofocus) frame.

The image shown on the LCD monitor before the picture is
taken may differ in brightness, color, etc. from the image
actually recorded. Play back the recorded image to check it

Subjects not suitable for autofocus
The FinePix S3100 / FinePix S3500 uses a high-precision autofocusing mechanism. However, it may
have difficulty focusing on the following:
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 Dark subjects
h Fast moving subjects
h Subjects with little or no contrast between the
subject and the background (such as white
walls or subjects dressed in the same color as
the background)
h Shots where another high-contrast object (not
the subject) is close to the AF frame and is
either closer or further away than your subject
(such as a shot of someone against a
background with strongly contrasting
elements)
For such subjects use AF/AE lock (P.24).

Standard number of frames per xD-Picture Card
The table below shows the standard number of frames for a new xD-Picture Card formatted on the camera. The larger the
xD-Picture Card capacity, the bigger the difference between the actual number of frames and the number shown here. Also,
the size of an image file varies depending on the subject. So the number of remaining shots may decrease by 2 or may
remain the same. For this reason, the number displayed may not show the actual number of frames.
