Selecting Scene Mode: b Scene Mode

Scene Mode

The camera offers a choice of "assist" and "scene"
modes. In these mode, camera settings are auto-
matically optimized for the selected subject type.
Scene Assist Modes (four types)
Scene assist modes offer framing assist options to
help you compose your shots.
Portrait
B
Use for portraits. The main subject stands out clearly while the background
details are softened, lending a sense of depth to the composition.
Landscape
E
Use for vivid landscape shots that enhance outlines, colors, and contrast in
such subjects as skyscapes and forests.
Sports
P
Fast shutter speeds freeze fast-moving subjects for dynamic sports scenes.
Night portrait
D
Use for a natural balance between the main subject and background lighting
in portraits shot taken at night.
Scene Modes (eleven types)
Scene modes allow you to take pictures optimized for a particular subject
type by simply choosing a scene mode and pressing the shutter-release but-
ton. Voice recording which allows you to record sounds and play back
recorded sound can also be selected from the scene menu.
