Selecting a shooting mode according to the situation

Use the mode dial to switch between shooting modes before taking
pictures. You can take pictures with the optimum settings by setting the
mode dial according to the shooting conditions or purpose.
(Shooting mode
Program Auto
Suitable for general situations. The camera automatically uses settings that captures
the scene in its natural colors. You can set other functions such as flash as desired.

h D image stabilization
This function reduces the blur incurred by movement of the camera or subject when
taking pictures.
When the camera moves a lot or the subject is moving quickly, the blur may not be
reduced effectively.
i Portrait
Suitable for taking a portrait-style shot of a person. This mode is optimum for
reproducing silky skin tones.
l Landscape
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.
m Night Scene
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 mode, the lack of light 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. Since the shutter speed is slow, make sure that you stabilize the
camera by using a tripod.
o Self Portrait
Suitable for taking pictures of yourself - by yourself. The camera is set to focus at a
short distance. Macro shooting and super macro shooting can not be set.
