Creative Photography (Scene Modes)

mode automatically optimizes settings to suit the selected scene,
making creative photography as simple as selecting a mode, framing
a picture, and shooting as described on pages 25–29.

kPortrait
Use for portraits with soft, natural-
looking skin tones.
If the subject is far
from the background or a telephoto lens
is used, background details will be
softened to lend the composition a
sense of depth.
lLandscape
Use for vivid landscape shots in daylight.
The built-in flash and AF-assist
illuminator turn off; use of a tripod is
recommended to prevent blur when
lighting is poor.
