Epson PhotoPC 3100Z - Manual (Page 23)

Setting Up Your Camera 1-10
Choosing Your User Mode
The PhotoPC 3100Z has three user modes to give you
different levels of control over the camera settings. To use
more advanced features, such as white balance and exposure
adjustment, you must be in Program mode or Manual mode.
Program
This setting is recommended for photographers who want a
moderate amount of control over the camera’s functions.
This is the camera’s default mode. Programmed subjects
(Normal, Sports, Portrait, and Landscape) tailor your camera
settings to the type of picture you’re taking. You can also
make adjustments to sensitivity, white balance, and exposure.
Manual
This mode is for experienced photographers who want
complete control over the camera’s wide array of settings and
features. In addition to changing sensitivity and white
balance, you can adjust the shutter speed and aperture,
choose a spot or matrix metering system, take pictures with
an optional external flash, and focus the camera to three feet,
ten feet, or infinity.
Full Auto
In this mode, the camera chooses most settings for you. You
can simply point and shoot, or you can adjust some basic
settings, such as image quality, digital zoom, and macro
mode.
To choose the camera mode:
1 Turn the dial to and press the POWER button to
turn on the camera.
You see the SETUP
menu.
2 Press the button
next to the current
user mode to cycle
through the three
user modes.
NOTE
Your user mode stays in effect until you change the setting. If
your camera is without battery power for an extended period of
time, the user mode returns to the Program mode setting.
