Mode dial and direct button functions Mode dial My Mode Allows you to save your favorite settings as your own personal mode and use these customized settings when taking pictures. Current settings can also be saved for retrieving by this mode. "MY MODE SETUP" (P.172) "Using My Mode" (P.95) Situation-related modes Movie record Allows you to record movies. The camera sets the aperture and shutter speed 3 automatically. The camera maintains the correct focus and exposure even if the distance between your subject and the camera changes (when the FULLTIME AF is on (factory default setting)). "Recording movies" (P.48) 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 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. 61
