l Landscape shooting
Suitable for taking pictures of landscapes and other outdoor scenes. Both the
foreground and the background are in focus. Since blues and greens are
vividly reproduced in this mode, it is excellent for shooting natural scenery.
The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions.
m Night Scene shooting
Suitable for shooting pictures in the evening or at night. The camera sets a
slower shutter speed than is used in normal shooting. For example, if you
take a picture of a street at night in h mode, the lack of brightness will
result in a dark picture with the background underexposed and without
details. In the Night Scene shooting mode, the true appearance of the street
is captured. The camera automatically selects the optimal settings for this
type of shooting condition. Since the shutter speed is slow, make sure you
stabilize the camera by using a tripod.
P Program shooting

speed. Other functions, such as flash modes and drive modes, can be
