Picture-Taking Modes

Use this mode

For:

Auto

General picture-taking. Automatically sets exposure,
focus, and flash.

Sport

Subjects that are in motion. Shutter speed is fast.

Portrait

Full-frame portraits of people. Allows the subject to be
sharp and the background to be indistinct. For best
results, fill the frame with a head-and-shoulders pose.
Use the Telephoto (T) zoom button to exaggerate
background blur.

Night

Night scenes or low-light conditions. For shutter
speeds slower than 1/60 second, place the camera on
a flat, steady surface or use a tripod. Due to slow
shutter speeds, advise people to stay still for a few
seconds after the flash fires.

Landscape Distant subjects. Flash does not fire unless you turn it

on. Auto focus framing marks (see

page 18

) are not

available in Landscape.

Close-up

Close subjects 4-24 in. (10-60 cm) from the lens in
Wide Angle; 9.8-33.5 in. (25-85 cm) in Telephoto. Use
available light instead of flash if possible. Use the
camera screen to frame the subject.

Video

Capture video with sound. See

Taking Videos, page 39
