Shooting basics Shooting mode Situation-related modes 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 P mode, the lack of brightness will result in a dark picture with only dots of light. 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. 3 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. 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 were not moving. It enables you to capture facial expressions and detailed activity. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions. i Portrait shooting Suitable for taking a portrait-style shot of a person. This mode features an infocus subject against a blurred background. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting conditions. • The available settings vary depending on the mode. g"List of items by shooting mode" (P.217) Note 49
