and Shooting Modes
Always use a tripod to prevent camera
shake.
z See page 159 for settings that can be
changed in this mode.
z Tips for each function:
Portrait Mode
• 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 telephoto end setting.
Landscape Mode
• The icon (camera shake warning)
may appear on the LCD monitor since
slower shutter speeds are frequently
used in this mode. If this happens, affix
the camera to a tripod.
Night Scene Mode
• 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.
Fast Shutter
• Noise in the recorded image may
increase if you shoot in dark conditions.
