Shooting in a Special Scene Mode
You can take an optimal picture simply by selecting the appropriate
shooting mode.
Some settings can be changed in each shooting mode (p. 184).
Observe the following precautions according to the selected function.
You can achieve a better blurring effect of the background by making sure the upper half of
your subject fills the entire LCD monitor (or viewfinder).
You can enhance the blurring effect of the background even more by setting the lens to its
maximun telephoto setting.
The camera shake warning icon may appear on the LCD monitor (or viewfinder) since
slower shutter speeds are frequently used in this mode. If this happens, affix the camera to
a tripod.
The shutter speed slows down. Even if you use the flash, tell your subjects not to move for a
few moments.
If the Night Scene mode is used to shoot mid-day shots, the same effects as with the
mode can be obtained.
The slow synchro option automatically turns on.
With , (Special scene) of and , and , noise in
images may be greater because of the increased ISO speed.
Foliage
Shoots trees and leaves—such as new growth, autumn leaves or
blossoms—in vivid colors.
Snow
Shoots without a blue tinge and without making people appear dark
against a snowy background.
Beach
Shoots without making people appear dark near water or sand where
reflected sunlight is strong.
Fireworks
Captures fireworks in the sky crisply and at an optimal exposure.
Indoor
Prevents camera shake and maintains the subject's true color when
shooting under florescent or tungsten lightning.
The exposure is regulated so as to avoid the use of flash as much as
possible.
Night Snapshot
Use this to take snapshots of people against twilight or night
backgrounds to reduce the effects of camera shake even without
using a tripod.
