* Displays when the camera is attached to a tripod.
Under certain conditions, the icon that displays may not match the actual
scene. Especially when there is an orange or blue colored background (a
wall for example),
not be possible to shoot with the appropriate color. If this happens, try
shooting in the G mode (p. 68). While underwater, it is recommended to
use the Underwater scene mode (p. 58).
