Situation-related modes
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 P mode, the lack of brightness will result in a dark
picture with only dots of light. 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.
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.
j
Sports shooting
En
Suitable for capturing fast-moving action (such as sports) without blur. The
camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions.
i
Portrait shooting
Suitable for taking a portrait-style shot of a person. This mode features an in-
focus subject against a blurred background. The camera automatically sets the
optimal shooting conditions.
• The available settings vary depending on the mode.
