Scene Recognition

Advanced mode

In Intelligent Auto mode, the camera automatically detects shooting conditions. When a motion is
detected, the ISO sensitivity is increased according to the movement to reduce subject blur. When the
camera is set to Intelligent Auto mode, you can select [Advanced] mode, in which the camera
automatically shoots two images.

In Scene Recognition, the position of an icon displayed on the screen is different depending on the
circumstances. It depends on whether the camera recognizes a scene or condition. If the camera
recognizes a scene, icons and guides such as (Portrait),

(Infant),

(Night Portrait), (Night

Scene),

(Backlight Portrait), (Backlight),

(Landscape), (Macro), (Spotlight) or (Low

Light) are displayed on the first line. If the camera recognizes a condition, icons such as (Tripod) or

(Move) are displayed on the second line. The camera may recognize both the scene and condition,

or just one.
