Shooting still images (Scene Selection) Scene Selection modes The following modes are preset to match the scene conditions. Smile Shutter When the camera detects a smile, the shutter is released automatically. For details, see page 30. High Sensitivity Allows you to shoot images without a flash under low light conditions, reducing blur. Twilight Portrait* Allows you to shoot sharp images of people with the night view in the background without compromising the atmosphere. Twilight* Allows you to shoot night scenes at far distance without losing the dark atmosphere of the surroundings. SteadyShot (DSC-W210/W215 only) Allows you to shoot images clearly, reducing blur. Gourmet Shifts to Macro mode, allowing you to shoot food arrangements in delicious color. Beach Allows you to record the blue of the water clearly when shooting seaside or lakeside scenes. Soft Snap Allows you to shoot images with a softer atmosphere for portraits and flowers, etc. Landscape Focuses only on a distant subject to shoot landscapes, etc. Snow Allows you to record clear images preventing sunken colors in snowy scenes or other places where the whole screen appears white. Fireworks* Allows you to record fireworks in all their splendor. Underwater Allows you to shoot underwater in natural colors when using a water proof housing. * When you shoot images using (Twilight Portrait), (Twilight) or (Fireworks) mode, the shutter speed becomes slower, and blurring occurs frequently, so use of a tripod is recommended. 28
