Shooting Modes
This setting provides a pre-defined set of camera settings that
are optimized for taking still pictures of certain scene types to
give you better results. In each shooting mode, the camera
selects the best settings, such as the ISO speed, F-number
(aperture), and shutter speed, optimizing them for the
particular scene or situation.
NOTE: The shooting mode does not apply when you are
recording video clips.
1. In the Capture Menu (page 37), select Shooting Mode.
2. In the Shooting Mode sub-menu,
use the buttons to
highlight a setting.
3. Press the button to save the
setting and return to the Capture
Menu.
The following table explains the Shooting Mode settings in
more detail:
Setting Description
Auto
Mode
Use Auto Mode when you need to take a good shot
quickly, and do not have time to select a special
shooting mode on the camera. Auto Mode works well
for most shots in normal situations. The camera
automatically selects the best F-number (aperture), ISO
speed, and shutter speed for the scene.
Action
Use Action mode to capture sporting events, moving
cars, or any scene where you want to stop the action.
The camera uses fast shutter speeds and higher ISO
speeds to stop motion.
