zone
When a shooting mode appropriate for the shooting conditions is selected, the
camera automatically adjusts settings for optimal shooting.
Portrait
Blurs the background
and makes a person
stand out.
Landscape
Optimized for
shooting landscape
scenes which contain
both near and far
subjects.
Night Scene
Allows you to capture human subjects against the backdrop of
an evening sky or night scene. The flash is directed at the
person and the shutter speed is slow, so both the person and
the background can be beautifully shot.
(Special Scene)
You can shoot with the most appropriate settings for the scene.
Snow
Shoots without a
blue tinge and
without making
people appear dark
against a snowy background.
Foliage
Shoots trees and
leaves - such as
new growth,
autumn leaves or
blossoms - in vivid colors.
Beach
Shoots without
making people
appear dark near
water or sand
where reflected sunlight is strong.
Kids&Pets
Allows you to
capture subjects
that move around,
such as children
and pets, without missing photo
opportunities.
Night
Snapshot
Allows you to take
snapshots of
people against
twilight or night backgrounds by
reducing the effects of camera shake
even without using a tripod.
Indoor
Prevents camera
shake and
maintains the
subject’s true color
when shooting
under fluorescent or tungsten lighting.
Fireworks
Captures fireworks
in the sky sharply
and at optimal
exposure.
Underwater
Appropriate for
shooting images
with Waterproof
Case WP-DC6
(sold separately). This mode uses an
optimal white balance setting to
reduce bluish tones and record
images with a natural hue.
