TEXT - for the crisp reproduction of black text or line art on white
backgrounds. The flash mode is set to flash cancel (p. 30). Fill-flash can
be used. Use a tripod to eliminate camera shake and ensure the sharpest
images.
NIGHT PORTRAIT - for deep, subtle night scenes. When used with fill-
flash, the subject and background exposures are balanced. When taking
pictures of a landscape at night, use a tripod to eliminate blurring from
camera shake. To take portraits with night scenes, set the flash mode to
fill-flash (p. 30). Ask your subject not to move after the flash burst; the
shutter will still be open for the background exposure.
PORTRAIT - optimized to reproduce soft skin tones and a slight
defocusing of the background. The flash mode can be changed (p. 30).
Most portraits look best at a telephoto setting; longer focal lengths do not
exaggerate facial features and the shallower depth of field softens the
background.
LANDSCAPE - optimized to produce sharp, colorful landscapes.The flash
mode is set to flash cancel. Fill-flash can be used (p. 30).
MACRO & TEXT - for close-up images of text or line art between 16 -
60cm (6 ~ 24in.) from the CCD. Two pointers will indicate the combined
modes on the data panel and the macro and text indicators will be
displayed on the monitor. The use of a tripod is recommended.The flash
is set to flash cancel. Fill-flash can cause extreme overexposure and
uneven illumination.
