Menu Systems - Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200 User Manual

Menu Systems

To begin to explain the menu systems employed with the Panasonic
Lumix FZ200 I would like to illustrate the convention I will use to access
menu items
for example: Menu/set ▼Picture size ►3.5M Menu/set
means press the menu set button, cursor down to Picture size option
(using the 4 way navigation button) and then cursor right and then select
the 3.5M setting and then press the Menu/set button to close and save
this setting.
and: Menu/set ◄ ▼ motion picture tab ► Rec Mode ▼ MP4 Menu/set
means press the menu set button, cursor left to access the tabbed pages
(using the 4 way navigation button) and then cursor down and select the
motion picture tab setting and then cursor right for Recording mode and
then select MP4 and then press the Menu/set button to close and save
this setting.
In the iA (or the new iA+) mode the camera makes all
the exposure decisions for you. You simply have to
concentrate on framing the image exactly as you want
the image to appear. Inside the camera's processor is
making hundreds of calculation every second as you
half depress the shutter button. It analyses the
brightness and color as well as the distribution of dark
and light pixels in order to build up a "picture" of what
scene is being recorded by you. It uses this "picture" to
try and match your image to a set of standard images
which represent the main classification for the
automatic scene detection modes of:
i-Portrait ►i-Scenery►i-Macro►i-Night Portrait►i-Night scenery►i-
Handheld Nite Shot►i-Sunset►i-Baby
