Specifying Camera settings
Picture type—Choose the type of picture—Still , Burst , or
Timelapse —that you want to take. This field defaults to Still when you
turn the camera off. You can also set this setting through the Capture mode
settings on the camera.
White Balance—White Balance examines your pictures and tries to adjust
the color balance to remove the color casts that the current lighting
conditions add. Use Automatic when taking pictures under a variety of
lighting conditions. Use Daylight when taking pictures outdoors. Use
Fluorescent when taking pictures under fluorescent light. Use
Tungsten when taking pictures under normal incandescent light. Off
makes no white balance adjustment. You can also set this setting through the
Capture mode settings on the camera.
Flash mode—The mode in which you want the camera’s flash to operate.
Auto causes the flash to fire only when there is not enough light. Fill
causes the flash to fire for every picture. Red-eye Reduction causes the
flash to fire twice—once 600 milliseconds before the picture is taken to
constrict the subject’s pupils, and once when the picture is taken. Off turns
the flash off. You can also set this setting through the Capture mode settings
and through the SCROLL and SELECT buttons on the camera.
Focus (DC260 only)—Single spot determines the focus position using
the subject in the center of the lens. Multi-spot determines the focus
position using three positions on the lens. Manual allows you to specify
the focus position from the pull down menus. You can also set this setting
through the Capture mode settings on the camera.
