j Sports shooting
Suitable for capturing fast-moving action (such as sports) without blur. Even
a fast-moving subject will be clear and sharp, as if it is not moving, enabling
you to capture facial expressions and detailed activity. The camera
automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions.
k Landscape+Portrait shooting
Suitable for taking pictures of both your subject and the landscape. The
picture is taken with the background as well as the subject in the foreground
in focus. You can take pictures of your subject against a beautiful sky or
landscape. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions.
l Landscape shooting
Suitable for taking pictures of landscapes and other outdoor scenes. Both the
foreground and the background are in focus. Since blues and greens are
vividly reproduced in this mode, it is excellent for shooting natural scenery.
The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions.
m 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 h mode, the lack of brightness will result in a dark picture
with the background underexposed and without details. In the Night Scene
shooting mode, the true appearance of the street is 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.
o Self-Portrait shooting
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.
