ISO BKTISO BKTSelect a bracketing amount. Each time the shutter is released, the camera will take a picture at the current sensitivity (P 60) and process it to create two additional copies, one with sensitivity raised and the other with sensitivity lowered by the selected amount (regardless of the amount selected, sensitivity will not exceed ISO 6400 or fall below ISO 200). FILM SIMULATION FILM SIMULATION BKTBKTEach time the shutter is released, the camera takes one shot and processes it to create copies with diff erent fi lm simulation settings (P 46).

No panorama may be recorded if the shutter button is pressed before the panorama is complete. For Best Results For Best Results For best results, use a lens with a focal length of 35 mm or less (50 mm or less in 35 mm format). Prop your elbows against your sides and move the cam- era slowly in a small circle at a steady speed, keeping the camera parallel or at right angles to the horizon and being careful only to pan in the direction shown by the guides. Use a tripod for best results. If the desired results are not achieved, try panning at a dif- ferent speed.
70 The DRIVE Dial Q Panoramas are created from multiple frames; expo- sure for the entire panorama is determined by the fi rst frame. The camera may in some cases record an greater or lesser angle than selected or be unable to stitch the frames together perfectly. The last part of the panorama may not be recorded if shooting ends before the panorama is complete. Q Shooting may be interrupted if the camera is panned too quickly or too slowly. Panning the camera in a direction other than that shown cancels shooting. Q The desired results may not be achieved with mov- ing subjects, subjects close to the camera, unvary- ing subjects such as the sky or a fi eld of grass, sub- jects that are in constant motion, such as waves and waterfalls, or subjects that undergo marked chang- es in brightness. Panoramas may be blurred if the subject is poorly lit.Viewing PanoramasViewing Panoramas In full-frame playback, you can use the rear com- mand dial to zoom panoramas in or out. Alter- natively, you can play the panorama back using the selector. PLAY STOP PAUSE Press the selector down to start playback and press again to pause. While playback is paused, you can scroll the panorama manually by press- ing the selector left or right; vertical panoramas will scroll vertically, horizontal panoramas hori- zontally.

Choose for stationary subjects. • C (continuous AF): Focus is continually adjusted to refl ect changes in the distance to the subject while the shutter button is pressed halfway. Use for subjects that are in motion. Eye-detection AF is not available. • M (manual): Focus manually using the lens focus ring. Rotate the ring left to reduce the focus distance, right to increase. The manual focus indicator indicates how closely the focus distance matches the distance to the subject in the focus brackets (the white line indicates the focus distance, the blue bar the depth of fi eld, or in other words the distance in front of and behind the focus point that ap- pears to be in focus); you can also check focus visually in the viewfi nder or LCD monitor. Choose for manual control of focus or in situations in which the camera is unable to focus using autofocus ( P 82). 18 XF ZOOMA18-55 23 35 55 Reduce focus distanceIncrease focus distance 01 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 3.0 5.0 1040005.6400M Manual focus indicator Manual focus mode icon Focus distance (white line) 51.0 1.5 2.0 3.0 5.0 Depth of fi eld (blue bar) R Use the I FOCUS RING option in the setup menu (P 110) to reverse the direction of rotation of the focus ring.
