Using Program mode
Program mode gives access to exposure compensation (how much light enters the
camera), focus mode, and ISO. The camera automatically sets the shutter speed and
aperture (f-stop) based on the scene lighting.
NOTE: Settings you change in P mode apply only to pictures taken in P mode. The settings, including Flash,
are maintained for P mode—even when you change modes or turn off the camera. Use Reset
Camera (see page 36) to reset P mode to its default settings.
Changing Program mode settings
1 Tap the Capture Mode icon.
2 Tap the P icon.
3 To access the most popular settings (Flash, Self-timer/Burst, Exposure
Compensation, AF Control, or Tag Options), turn on shortcuts (see page 9), then
tap the desired setting. To access additional settings, tap Menu.
To access the camera Help system, see page 43.
Using exposure compensation to adjust brightness
In P and Panorama modes, you can adjust exposure compensation before you take a
picture to make your pictures darker or lighter. (Only the first picture in Panorama
mode can be adjusted—that adjustment is applied to the remaining pictures.)
1 Tap Exposure Compensation to access the exposure compensation setting.
2 Drag the slider (or tap the slider bar) to increase or decrease exposure
compensation.
The scene in the LCD gets lighter or darker.
3 Take the picture when you are satisfied with the exposure compensation level.
