Less Uncertainty, More Opport unity
Creative photography simply by rotating the mode dial
AUTO: This automatic “point-and-shoot” mode lets you
concentrate on getting the shot. Settings are controlled
automatically to match shooting conditions.
Auto (Flash Off): Captures low-light situations without the Built-in
Flash by using available light and boosting light sensitivity.
Whether it’s a museum, concert or school play, you’re ready
whenever flash photography is not allowed.
Portrait: Select this mode when you want a sophisticated,
professional-looking portrait with your subject sharply focused
and the background stylishly softened.
Landscape: This mode ensures beautiful pictures of landscapes,
buildings and other large-scale subjects. It’s also ideal for
shooting groups of friends and family with a backdrop of
beautiful scenery.
Child: Capture beautifully expressive images of children with
Child mode. Your pictures will feature natural skin tones while
clearly and vividly rendering clothing and background details.
Sports: High shutter speeds freeze motion for dynamic action shots
where the main subject stands out clearly. The camera tracks your
subject, adjusting the focus with split-second response.
Close Up: Discover the hidden beauty in flowers, coins, insects
and other small treasures. Close Up mode renders every detail
of the foreground, while a softened background helps your
subject stand out. Use a tripod to get the sharpest results.
Night Portrait: This mode focuses on the closest subject in a low-
light situation and then calculates a balanced exposure for both
the foreground and the background. For the sharpest pictures, a
tripod is recommended.
Get better shots in almost any situation. Each of the eight Digital Vari-Program
modes is designed to calculate the best settings for your scene automatically.
Simply choose one, or select AUTO and let the D40 do all the work.
