This is the Fine setting.• Use the Zoom to exactly fill the digital camera LCD viewer screen with the circular image.If you zoom in too much, you will lose part of the field of view. If you zoom in too little, youwill not get maximum resolution. Note also that the OneShot image may not be exactlycentered in the LCD screen – this is normal.• Make sure the pop-up flash is in its "down" position and the "flash disabled" icon isshowing on the LCD screen.• For best focus, you can set the camera to Infinity Focus (mountains) for outdoor shotscovering a large space or to Macro Focus (flowers) for indoor shooting.
