Scene Mode (Shooting Suited to Scenes)
Shooting Features
Characteristics of Each Scene
x Scene auto selector
The camera simplifies shooting by automatically selecting the optimum scene mode from
the list below when the shot is framed.
e: Portrait, f: Landscape, h: Night portrait, g: Night landscape, i: Close-up, j:
Backlighting, d: Other scenes
• When the camera selects a scene mode, the shooting mode icon displayed in the
shooting screen changes to that for the scene mode currently enabled.
• The focus area depends on the composition of the picture. When the camera detects a
human face, it focuses on that face (A73).
• When the camera selects h (night portrait), flash mode is fixed at fill flash with slow
sync and red-eye reduction (when U (auto) is selected) and the camera captures one
image at a slower shutter speed.
• When the camera selects g (night landscape), flash mode is fixed at W (off), regardless
of the setting made, and the camera captures one image at a slower shutter speed.
• Depending upon shooting conditions, the camera may not select the desired scene
mode. Should this occur, switch to A (auto) mode (A26) or select the desired scene
mode manually.
• Digital zoom cannot be used.
b Portrait
Use this mode for portraits.
• When the camera detects a human face, it focuses on that
face (A73).
• The camera softens skin tones by applying the skin
softening function (A75).
• If no faces are detected, the camera focuses on the subject
in the center of the frame.
• Digital zoom cannot be used.
c Landscape
Use this mode for vivid landscapes and cityscapes.
• The focus area or focus indicator (A7) always glows green
when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.
