Programmed Image Control Modes
Select a shooting mode to suit the target subject, and the camera
will be set to obtain the best results.
Portrait
This mode blurs the background to make
the human subject stand out.
Holding down the shutter button executes
continuous shooting.
•To improve the background blur, use a
telephoto lens and fill the frame with the
subject or have the subject stand farther away
from the background.
U
I
O
Landscape
Close-up
This is for wide scenic views, night scenes,
etc.
Using a wide-angle lens will further enhance
the depth and breadth of the picture.
Use this mode to take close-up shots of
flowers, insects, etc.
As much as possible, focus the subject at the
lens’ closest focusing distance.
•To obtain a larger magnification, use the
telephoto end of a zoom lens.
A blinking shutter speed indicates that the shutter speed is too slow
to prevent a blurred picture due to camera shake. Be careful to hold
the camera steady and press the shutter button smoothly, or use a
tripod. (The shutter speed indicator still blinks when you use a
tripod, but camera shake will not be a problem.)
