This is selected when none of the following seven modes apply.
For capturing portraits. Reproduces a healthy and bright skin
tone.
For capturing landscape views. Increases color saturation and
produces a vivid color image
For capturing tiny objects at close focus range like flowers,
coins, jewelry, and more
For capturing images of people in low light conditions, such as
dusk or at night.
Even though the flash is used, the camera will use slow shutter
speeds so the background areas beyond the flash reach will
also appear correctly exposed in the picture (1 Slow-speed
Sync (p.212)). To prevent camera shake, either use the Shake
Reduction function or mount the camera on a tripod.
For capturing sunrises or sunsets in beautiful, vivid color
For capturing images of blue sky. Produces a more impressive
deep blue
Enhances colors of trees and sunbeams through foliage and
produces a vivid color image
