Night portrait - for deep, subtle night scenes. The use of a tripod is recommended.
When used with flash, the subject and background exposures are balanced. The flash
can only be used with close subjects such as with a portrait of a person. When using the
flash, ask your subjects not to move after the burst; the shutter may still be open for the
background exposure.

Text - To take pictures of black text or line art on white backgrounds.

Super Macro - for close-up photographs down to 6cm (2.4 in.). When selected, the lens
zooms automatically to the Super Macro position; the zoom position cannot be changed.
At close object distances, the flash may cause overexposure or uneven illumination, set
the flash mode to flash cancel (p. 28). The use of a tripod is recommended.

Auto recording - when the Digital Subject Programs are turned off, the camera uses
programmed autoexposure.

SPOT AF

The spot AF is used for selective focusing. Both focus and exposure are determined with
the spot focus area. When auto reset (p. 45) is active, the spot AF area resets to the wide
focus frame when the camera is turned off. The spot focus area can be used with movie
recording. When used with the digital zoom (p. 51), the spot focus area is enlarged.

Press and hold the center button of the controller
to display the spot focus area; press and hold the
button again to return to the wide focus frame.
Take the picture as described in the basic
recording operation section on page 24.

When the LCD monitor is off, the camera cannot
be switched between wide and spot AF; the last
AF mode set is active. When the live image only
display is used, switching between the wide and
spot AF modes resets the display mode to the full
display.
