MACRO - used for close-up photography between 20 and 60 cm (0.7 -

2.0ft) from the CCD. The lens will automatically zoom to the macro

position and cannot be changed. Because of parallax, the LCD monitor

should be used to compose the picture. Full-time AF (p. 67) is employed.

Available in the multi-function recording mode.

PORTRAIT - optimized to reproduce soft skin tones and a slight

defocusing of the background. Most portraits look best at a telephoto

setting; longer focal lengths do not exaggerate facial features and the

shallower depth of field softens the background.

SPORTS ACTION - optimized to stop action. Automatic Digital Subject

Program Selection activates this mode when shooting moving subjects

at a distance with a telephoto lens setting. Full-time AF (p. 67) is

employed.

LANDSCAPE - optimized to produce sharp, colorful landscapes. With

bright outdoor scenery, Automatic Digital Subject Program Selection

activates this mode with distant subjects a wide-angle lens setting. The

flash will not fire in this mode. To use the flash, change the flash mode

to fill flash.

SUNSET - optimized to produce rich, warm sunsets. Automatic Digital

Subject Program Selection recognizes the warmth of the setting sun in

a landscape photograph and activates this mode.

NIGHT PORTRAIT - the flash and ambient exposures are balanced to

reveal the subject and background in low light. Ask your subject not to

move after the flash burst; the shutter may still be open for the

background exposure. To take pictures of landscapes at night, set the

flash mode to flash cancel (p. 32). Because the flash does not fire,

exposures can be long. The use of a tripod is recommended. Available

in the multi-function recording mode.
