Video camera settings overview
Scene selection
The Scene selection feature helps you to quickly set up the camera for common
situations using pre-programmed video scenes. Each scene setting is designed to
produce the best quality video possible in a specific recording environment.
Off
The Scene selection feature is off and you can shoot videos manually.
Soft snap
Use for shooting videos against soft backgrounds.
Landscape
Use for videos of landscapes. The camera focuses on distant objects.
Night scene
When turned on, light sensitivity is increased. Use in poorly lit environments. Videos of fast-
moving objects may get blurred. Hold your hand steady, or use a support. Turn off night mode
when lighting conditions are good, to improve the video quality.
Beach
Use for videos of seaside or lakeside scenes.
Snow
Use in bright environments to avoid overexposed videos.
Sports
Use for videos of fast-moving objects. Short exposure time minimises motion blurring.
Party
Use for indoor videos in poorly lit environments. This scene picks up indoor background lighting
or candlelight. Videos of fast-moving objects may get blurred. Hold your hand steady, or use a
support.
HDR video
Use the video HDR (High-Dynamic Range) setting to record a video against strong
back light or in conditions where the contrast is sharp. Video HDR compensates for
the loss of detail and produces a picture that is representative of both dark and bright
areas.
This setting is only available in Manual capturing mode.
