Snapshot Tutorial
Your camera has a variety of different recording
modes. Before recording an image, rotate the mode
dial to select the recording mode that suits the type of
image you are trying to record.
Selecting the Recording Mode
Silent
The Silent mode disables flash, mutes camera operation tones, and changes
other settings to help ensure that shooting does not bother others around you
(page 54).
Slide Panorama
Simply move the camera as you record and it shoots a series of images that
you can stitch together on the monitor screen to produce a sweeping panorama
(page 52).
BEST SHOT
Simply select one of a collection of built-in sample scenes and the camera sets
up automatically for beautiful images every time (page 60).
Premium Auto
With Premium Auto recording, the camera automatically determines whether
you are shooting a subject or scenery, and other conditions. Premium Auto
recording delivers higher image quality than standard Auto recording (page 23).
