Taking Pictures and Recording Video Clips

If the shooting mode setting is anything other than the default

Auto Mode setting, the icon for the setting will appear in the

Live View screen.
The shooting mode remains in effect until it is changed

again, or until it resets to the default Auto Mode setting when

you turn the camera off. To save changed settings, use My

Mode (see page 55 and Using the My Mode Saved Settings

Sub-Menu on page 56).
NOTE: The shooting mode does not apply when you are

recording video clips.

Document Use Document mode for shooting flat, textual, or

graphical pieces. This mode uses a high contrast

setting and a low saturation setting, with flash set to

Flash Off and the orientation sensor turned off.

Aperture

Priority

Use Aperture Priority mode when you want specific

control over the aperture (for example, using a lower

F-number to blur the background or a higher F-number

for more depth of field). This mode lets you select the

F-number (aperture) setting in Live View using

the

buttons, while the camera selects the best shutter

speed.

My Mode

This is a customizable shooting mode that allows you

to select, save, and then repeatedly use a group of

preferred settings on your camera. See Using My

Mode on page 55.
