Image settings:
— Select a colour effect.
— Adjust the white balance. Select the current lighting conditions. This allows
the camera to reproduce colours more accurately.
— Adjust the exposure compensation (images only). If you are shooting a dark
subject against a very light background, such as snow, adjust the exposure to +1 or
+2 to compensate for the background brightness. For light subjects against a dark
background, use -1 or -2.
— Adjust light sensitivity (images only). Increase the light sensitivity in low light
conditions to avoid too dark images and blurry images. Increasing the light
sensitivity may also increase the image noise.
— Adjust contrast (images only). Adjust the difference between the lightest and
darkest parts of the image.
