type” on page 127 and “TIFF” on page 134.
Landscape exposure mode
The exposure mode that automatically optimizes the camera settings for taking pictures of distant
subjects, such as landscape scenes. See also “exposure modes” on page 127.
LCD

characters and/or icons to communicate the camera's status, such as the particular settings that you have
made for taking a picture. See also “image LCD” on page 128 and “status LCD” on page 133.
