Shooting mode setting — Mode dial (Cont.)
Night-Scene shooting
Suitable for shooting pictures in the evening or at night. The camera sets a
slower shutter speed than is used in normal shooting. For example, if you take
a picture of a street at night in the
mode, the lack of brightness will
result in a dark picture with only the sparkle of lights such as street lamps
appearing. In the Night Scene shooting mode, the true appearance of the
street can be captured. The camera automatically selects the optimal settings
for this type of shooting condition. Since the shutter speed is slow, make sure
you stabilize the camera by using a tripod.
Self Portrait shooting
Enables you to take a picture of yourself
while holding the camera. Point the lens
towards you and take a shot. The focus is
locked on you (shooter). The camera
automatically selects the optimal settings for
this type of shooting condition. Zooming is not
possible in this mode.
Movie record
Allows you to record movies. The camera sets the aperture and shutter speed
automatically.
