M Create a diorama effect
Use this feature to make your images look like a miniature model.
This effect is well-suited for images captured from a high vantage
point with the main subject at the center of the image.
• The closest distance at which the camera can focus varies
depending on the zoom position. When the zoom is set to a
position where the zoom indicator glows green, the camera can
focus on subjects as close as about 20 cm (7.9 in.) from the front
of the protective glass.
When the zoom is at the maximum wide-angle position, the camera can focus on subjects as
close as about 5 cm (2 in.) from the front of the protective glass.
• The camera focuses on the subject in the center of the frame.
• Digital zoom cannot be used.
• A guide is displayed in the monitor. Compose the shot so that the main subject is contained
within the guide.
• The camera focuses even when the shutter-release button is not pressed halfway. You may hear
the sound of the camera focusing.
• The flash may be unable to light the entire subject at distances of less than 30 cm (1 ft).
K Photograph fireworks
Slow shutter speeds are used to capture the light from fireworks.
• Camera focuses at infinity.
• The focus indicator (
A 5) always glows green when the shutter-
release button is pressed halfway.
