aperture to blur the background and providing little depth of field. The
the subject will stand out because the background is blurry and the
subject is in focus.
Landscape This feature is used to emphasize wide scenic views.

Backlight
This feature is used to capture the image of a backlight object by
changing the metering.
Kids This feature is used to capture still images of children.
Night Scene
This scene mode is used to capture images with night scenery
background. For best results and to reduce image blurring, the use of a
tripod for this mode is strongly recommended.
Fireworks
This feature slows shutter speed to capture fireworks explosions. For
best results and to reduce image blurring, the use of a tripod for this
mode is strongly recommended.
Snow
This scene mode is used when you’re shooting against a bright
background, such as snow or sand. This will enable the camera to
focus on the subject instead of the background to determine the proper
exposure setting. If not selected, the subject may be too dark because
of the bright background.
Sports
This scene mode will continue to capture images as long as the shutter
button is depressed. This is designed to aid for subjects in motion.
Party
This scene mode will set red-eye flash and narrow other parameters that
best match typical indoor wedding/party conditions.
