If the shooting mode setting is anything other than the default
Auto Mode
setting, the icon for the setting (in the previous
table) will appear in the
Live View
screen. The new setting
remains in effect until it is changed again or until the camera is
turned off. The shooting mode setting resets to the default
Auto
setting when you turn the camera off.
NOTE
To restore the shooting mode setting to what it was
when you last turned the camera off, hold down the
Menu/OK
button as you turn the camera back on.
Action
The camera uses fast shutter speeds and higher ISO
speeds to stop motion. Use
Action
mode to capture
sporting events, moving cars, or any scene where you
want to stop the action.
Portrait
The camera combines a smaller F-number to blur the
background, with lower sharpness for a more natural
effect. Use
Portrait
mode for pictures that have one or
more people as their primary focal point.
Landscape
The camera combines a higher F-number for better
depth of field with higher sharpness for a more vivid
effect. Use
Landscape
mode to capture mountain
scenes or any shots with a deep perspective.
Beach &
Snow
This mode allows you to capture bright outdoor
scenes and balance out harsh lighting.
