LANDSCAPE
Suitable for taking photos of landscapes and other outdoor scenes. The
camera focuses on a distant tree or mountain to produce a clear picture.
Since blues and greens are vividly reproduced in this mode, the landscape
mode is excellent for shooting natural scenery. The camera automatically
sets the optimal shooting conditions.
NIGHT SCENE
Suitable for shooting pictures in the evening or at night. The camera sets a
slower shutter speed than is used in normal shooting. If you take a picture of
a street at night in any other mode, the lack of brightness will result in a dark
picture with only dots of light showing. In this mode, the true appearance of
the street is captured. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting
conditions.
SELF PORTRAIT
Enables you to take a picture of yourself while holding the camera. Point the
lens towards yourself and the focus will be locked on you. The camera
automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions. The zoom is fixed in the
Wide position and cannot be changed.
MOVIE
Lets you record movies. The camera maintains the correct focus and
exposure even if your subject moves or the distance between your subject
and the camera changes. You cannot record movies with sound.
• The shutter speed will extend up to 2 seconds even when the flash is set to
fire.
• The noise reduction function will activate automatically for exposures longer
than 1 second. You cannot take any pictures during noise reduction
processing.
