Shooting Modes - FujiFilm Finepix A500 Training Manual

SHOOTING MODES

Depending on which Fujifi lm FinePix camera you select, there are a variety of
Shooting Modes that make "point-and-shoot" take on new meaning.
Even though most compact digital cameras are designed to be used as a simple
point-and-shoot camera, there are some shooting conditions that require a little
extra attention to lighting, focus, or shutter and aperture settings to make sure
the shot looks great.
Fujifi lm FinePix cameras offer several great preset shooting modes that make
photography easy in a number of different challenging environments.
PORTRAIT: Specifi cally
designed for head shots or
close-up subject shots. Used
for getting beautiful skin tones
and soft overall tone.
NIGHT SCENE: Priority is
given to slow shutter speeds
in order to capture accurate
nighttime composition.
PARTY: Used for shooting at
weddings or an indoor party.
This mode retains natural
lighting characteristics of
the shooting environment.
FLOWER CLOSE-UP:
Use this mode to take a
clear, sharp, close-up shot
of any subject matter that is
very small or contains highly
detailed composition.
LANDSCAPE: Used for
scenery in daylight. Provides
crisp, clear shots of distant
subjects such as mountains
or large buildings.
BEACH AND SNOW:
this mode to prevent darken-
ing or overexposed images
when shooting in conditions
of bright sunlight such as at
the beach or when skiing.
MUSEUM: Use this mode
when taking pictures in
places such as museums,
where the use of fl ash and
operational sounds (shutter
sounds) may be prohibited.
Flash mode is forcibly set
to suppressed fl ash, and
operational sound and
shutter sound are disabled.
SPORT: This mode gives
priority for faster shutter
speeds to capture fast
moving objects such as race
cars, runners, bicyclists, etc.
FIREWORKS:
Use
camera settings for capturing
brilliant fi reworks displays.
SUNSET: This mode makes
colors more vivid for sunset
time of day.
TEXT: For shooting documents
and white board. It is highly
effective for maintaining sharp
clear text reproduction.

waterproof case. It is effective
for taking more vivid shots of
