Shooting Features
G (Easy Auto) Mode
When you frame a picture, the camera automatically selects the optimum scene
for simple shooting.
When the camera is pointed at the subject, the camera
automatically switches to the setting that is suited for
one of the following shooting scenes.
1
If the camera switches to night landscape or night portrait scene mode, it shoots a single
picture at a slow shutter speed.
2
The camera is switched to underwater mode when it is lowered into water.
• When the digital zoom is in effect, the shooting scene is set to U.
• The focus area changes depending on which scene the camera selects. The
camera detects and focuses on faces (see “Using Face Detection” (A62) for
more information).
• See “Focus and Exposure” (A29) for more information.
B Note on Easy Auto Mode
The desired scene mode may not be selected in certain conditions. In this case, select another
shooting mode.
B Note after Taking the Camera out of the Water
After taking the camera out of water, sometimes it may not automatically switch to another scene
from underwater mode.
Gently brush any water droplets with your hand from the camera or wipe it off with a soft and dry
cloth. See “Cleaning after Using the Camera Underwater” (Axiv) for more information on caring for
the camera.
