Shooting Shooting modes Set the mode dial (and also set the MODE MENU as needed) to select the appropriate shooting mode depending on the type of shooting conditions. • Rotating the mode dial may return some settings to the factory default settings even when ALL RESET is set to OFF. Note SCENE Full-auto shooting Easy to use automatic mode selecting the optimal exposure and focus for general En photography. In Full auto, special functions and controls such as Flash intensity control or drive modes cannot be set by the user. This is the simplest of all shooting modes. Mode dial Portrait shooting Suitable for shooting a portrait-style image of a person. This mode features an in-focus subject against a blurred background. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting settings. Night-Scene shooting Suitable for shooting pictures of outdoor scenes in the evening or at night. For example, if you take a picture of a street at night in other modes, the lack of brightness will result in a dark picture with only the sparkle of lights such as street lamps appearing. In the Night Scene shooting mode, the true appearance of the street can be 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. 22
